I am so sorry but it seems that the link that would give all of you
more information about what, where , and when did not come through
as it should have so I will post it here for all of my good friends
in the club.

That is the message thread letting you all know who all is coming
and the entire mission as it is planned so far. There will probably
be more posts from fellow bikers in the guard as the day progresses
so you might want to check back again this evening. Ya'll can also
give me a shout at (580) 276-0931. That is my cell # and I will be
in the city all day probably but you can try it there and at the
very least give me a voice mail. Harleyman also has my home number
and I am sure he will give it to anyone that is interested just for
asking.
Thanks to all of you.
