If you are on the ride, like to Julian this weekend, and are snapping photos on your phone, remember to send them in. The email address is in the photo instruction page. I cannot post the email address here because spammers will grab it. But please, add that address to your contact list and click away!
And remember, safety first! Don’t take pictures while in motion unless you are the passenger.
Check out this article called “Buffalo Chip: ‘Warrior Chopper’ Build” in the latest issue of Ultimate Motorcycling.
The help our Chapter provided on the Warrior Chopper Build Project has played a part in making a difference in the lives of 5 combat injured Marines. What the article doesn’t mention is that after leaving Sturgis, the bike will be displayed at the National Museum of the Marine Corps located in Quantico, VA. Then, next year one combat injured warrior will be selected to ride the Chopper to The Wall during the Run for the Wall event. I cannot express how proud I am to be part of the Orange Coast HOG Chapter.
