After a long hard winter this rally was the breath of fresh air my tired soul needed. The fellowship and comoradoary was exactly what this weary traveler needed.
Hats off to the Montana brothers who did such a superb job to organize, manage and host this very successful event. As a visitor I was impressed and thrilled by the wonderful meals, and the rides organized.

I along with many of my brothers and fellow Widows Sons members had a great time at the 2010 Masonic Spring Workshop in Kananaskis.
Accommodations at the Delta Hotel were excellent, along with the food and the friendliness of the hotel staff.

Brothers if you have given some thought to going south to ride in the middle of our brutal winter you have my encouragement. I just returned from a two week trip. My bike was on the road for only 5 days but a great 5 days it was.
See image gallery for a taste.

It's happened. Fully enclosed motorcycles are now being sold in Europe and I suspect they will be available in North America in 2010.
Not cheap but they are luxurious. There are a few different small manufacturers in the game. Perhaps in first place is PERAVES from Birmingham England. http://monotracer.com

One problem I have every spring is with my battery. In fact I am on my third battery for my Honda1100 in six years of riding.
This year my mechanic told me to install a Battery Tender and my battery should last almost forever.

Masonry has survived for thousands of years because we continue to attract to our lodges the very best of men. Men of character, integrity, dedication and commitment. Men who stand steadfast in the face of adversity and who will yield to the need of others.

Unbelievable but true, Scotty Pollacheck's old record set in Sept has been beaten. The new world record for the 1/4 mile on an all electric motorcycle is well over 170 mph.

You just might get a charge out of it.

Brethren:
The following are my personal observations of the AGM and should not be considered a REPORT. I leave such duties to the appropriate officers to give the official details of the AGM.
I have my good days, my bad days and on rare occasions I have a great day. Sunday the 25th was one truly great day for me and I suspect for everyone who was fortunate enough to be in attendance.

Brethren All:
I try each year to make a trip in the spring and again in the fall,after the summer rush is over. This year was no exception so five of us headed to B.C. to do the famous Revelstoke to Creston run.
It is the off season and a route I have traveled ore than once, so I felt confident I would be able to find accommodations.
