Good Morning to my fellow GW Friends, It has been an interesting last couple of weeks and that is putting it mildly.

With spring just ALMOST here, I feel that most of you = are getting very anxious about getting back into the saddle. PLEASE, OH PLEAS= E!! Take the time to do some figure 8’s, tryin= g out those brakes, and get re-acquainted with your bikes. It has been a LONG winter and you = may be rusty about using your muscles and your thoughts about riding safety. When going out on the road, Please= Be mindful of the debris on the roadway, and Please, be aware that the average driver has NOT seen you since last fall and they may= be looking straight through YOU.

As you read this Newsletter, It should be or very near= to April 1^st. (April Fool’s Day).<= span style=3D'mso-spacerun:yes'> It starts out with a Breakfast com= ing up on the 2^nd of April at Greenvillage Family Restaurant @ 8:00am. = At 6:00pm that same evening (Saturday April 2^nd) is The Game night = at Myron and Audrey Wengers. Call the Wenger home = Phone # at 717-264-6600 if you planning to come.= The rest of the dates are on the calendar.

Our riding coordinators have out done themselves. The next couple of months will hav= e so much going on that, you will be able to pick and choose. We really don’t want anyone = to be saying that we do not ride, or there isn’t anything going on. Grab a calendar and hang on. That calendar is there= for your INFORMATION only. If you don’t have a calendar, Please contacts L. Dice@ 717-369-5131. I am not going = any further with the explanation. Our Newsletter folks are very good at putting everything in this newsletter. So read on....

Our heartfelt THANKS to the Ray and Brenda Cressler for stepping up and spear heading the “Roll For Dough” campaign. Yes, it is a campaign, for t= here is a goal. And that is to (pardon the pun) “Git<= /span> R Done”. As you look at= the calendar, there are quite a few of “Roll for the Dough” runs an= d a couple of overnight stays to complete that goal for the Roll. Speaking of these runs, there are several Chapters that meet during the week, some meeting on Tuesday and a couple others that meet on Wednesday evenings. Several of us, who are retired, (o= r I will say, some of us who don’t have time clocks to punch,) are contem= plating to make this our runs, to do our part in helping out. If you are interested in helping u= s to do this, Please contact me and we will set this up. I really think we can do this. Thi= s is a way that some of the rest of us can help to make it happen. We are, well on the way to making = this a successful “Roll for the Dough” for our Chapter.

Starting in May 22nd, (on the 4^th Sunday of= the month, after Church, after the nap,) it is now time for an “Ice Cream Run”. Well, those who are interested, there will be a Ice Cream run, = for those who just show up at Day’s Inn Parking Lot, someone will be ther= e to lead.

Take the Time to appreciate someone today, It might be= the only time they will hear they are valued.

Please Read On!

Ride safe…….B. & B Niswander

= Somerset, Pa. Ride to “Chapter PA-T” (03-11-11)

On Friday Night at 4:= 00 PM, four of us loader up in a van at the Days Inn Parking lot and off to Breezewood = we went. There was a slight rain snow mixture falling at the time and it was 36 degrees. When the gang made it to Breezewood we picked up the Wishards and = sped off down the road. After crossing the turnpike tunnel into Somerset we found snow still on the ground and a bit brisk outside. Entering the Kings Restau= rant we found Chapter-T located in the back section by them and they welcomed us with open arms making us feel right at home with their group. Rick and Andi Riek the directors found us a seat and and intr= oduced us to some of the others in the group.

I did not count there= chapter members but they filled the room with our six members and they talked at th= eir meeting about moving to a larger Restaurant just down the road. After the meeting which had a lot of information and we learned a lot from them. Rick gave Betty a chance to talk about Chapter-C and she also brought up the All Chapters Event in July, we handed out fliers to the event to the ones interested. The highlight of the Gathering was meeting David and Sandy Shum= aker they were having their 50^th wedding anniversary. They put the co= uple in chairs in the front of the group and a member serenaded them with a very well performed older song I was not familiar with. After presenting Sandy w= ith a dozen roses they went back to their seat and a large cake was brought out with sliced strawberries on top (YUM). The cut it up and everyone enjoyed t= he desert after saying our goodbyes, I cleared the snow off the windshield and off we went back the way we came. It didn’t seem to take long with every one talking about the Gathering and how everybody enjoyed the time we had. What= a great group “PA-T” is. I hope to say HI to them at one of our Gatherings or on the road riding beside any of them as friends.<= /span>

Thanks for being ther= e with us by reading and keep safe out there, Myron Wenger

Ride to Dott, PA. to see Floyd Palmer

Thanks to Don and Judy Eisman for getting this together for Chapter “C”. It was a warm spring like day when we left the Milky Way parking lot at 11:00 AM. to m= eet the “MAN OF THE HOUR” Floyd Palmer. We met up at Dott’s Restaurant in Dott, Pa. at 12:00’ish. Floyd had wonderful stories to tel= l with a sharp mind even better than my recall from years ago. He started to ride = in high school on a 1930 Harley Davidson motorcycle and kept upgrading to the = next with a 1935 HD and so on. He purchased his first Goldwing in 1975 with a trooper friend of his and continued to ride with him and his wife. He conti= nued to upgrade several times until his 1990 Goldwing he had Triked just a few y= ears ago. He fired it up this year but didn’t take-er= out yet (cold weather).

I must say he looked great on Saturday at lunch.= We talked family and where all we lived and how he was born and raised in Dott= , Pa. and how it grew over the years. At 93 next month (April 17) he delivered three loads Friday with his 1968 dump truck which still runs good. He was pleasantly surprised about the number of Goldwingers (30) that showed up to have lunch with him. He was so appreciative, and would = like to THANK ALL = that came to eat lunch and spend time with him on Saturday (03-05-11). It was al= so nice to see the Carl and Elva Judy and Jill Tichnell and her friend. Let’s keep this place on our favorites list as a future gathering poi= nt on a nice day to ride.

Keep reading and riding on,=

= Game night at the Wishard’s = (03-12-11)

A Saturday evening is a great time to get together and= have a game night and Terry and Fredi were the perfect hosts. We entered with a = warm hello you-all and talked a bit before getting serious about the game at hand Uno with an automatic card dispenser. Wow it shoots them out at you. I was = not expecting that one, two, three, four, five, and so on. We laugh until some = of us almost cried. Well we had a break time, my favorite time is of course br= eak time, we ate up some of the deserts that everyone brought, they were all good eats. We switched games and started a card game called Hurt Y= our Neighbor, My first time with this game. It was a hoot and we seemed to pick= on Ray C and Harold B but they still played with us. We all had a grand time w= ith the Wishard’s and my thanks to them for have us all. For those who mi= ssed this one I feel sad for you for not being there.

Read on, and keep riding forward,

Myron Wenger
