Bravo Jan. Thank you for all that you did to help the club turn the page, and for your thick skin. I'll see you in Newburgh.

Re: Rally Attendance
Well said Jan, but I'll add a couple of minor things:
Mike originally signed on for 5 years, as he stated in a CBXPress when he took office. He, in fact, served 8 years, and was quietly looking for a replacement for a while before Jan stepped up. Nobody else offered to take the position, as far as I know.
The club finances were in sad shape 4 years ago. Printing bills for the XPress were being paid as subscriptions came in, but were ALWAYS in arrears. Numbers did not add up. You may not like how we got where we are now, but we're in the black, and no creditors are knocking.
Mike did far more as admin/editor/pres. than anyone should ever have to do. But, he chose to do it that way, and is some ways did great, in some ways, not so great. Hey, nobody's perfect.
I used to have folks contacting me asking about hosting a rally. Last year there were two. By all accounts of attendees, they were successfull. But, there were few attendees. A sign of the times?
Enough bickering, I'd rather hear some offers to help.

Either garage is too small or we have too many bikes. Or Momma's car needs to go outside.
