2 Chapter Director s Corner John Read, AZ-S Chapter Director We are well into the New Year now and it is time to plan those summer getaways. The Valley heat is a distant memory but it will be back soon enough. Plan on attending the Region F un Rally in Albuquerque, NM over the Memorial Day weekend and the Arizona District Rally in Lake Havasu City over the Halloween weekend, Also Wing Ding 38 this year will be in Billings, Montana August 31-September 3. There are so many routes to take from Arizona to Montana and they are all gorgeous. I wrote a short Bio this month for our Arizona District Newsletter and am including it here in case you missed it. Ride Safe! It is hard for me to imagine a world without motorcycles and if I do entertain that vision it is a gloomy place to live. I grew up on a Montana cattle ranch in the Bearpaw Mountains during the 70s when Evel Knievel was the biggest name in stunt riding. We had turned the horses out to pasture and started using motorcycles to work cattle and ride the fences. My first Honda, a SL70, began my love affair with machines. That little Honda was so reliable and fun it was my ticket to many adventures even if there were some long days in the saddle. My brother and I learned to ride on the principle of Pain is a good teacher and I must have crashed thousands of times in that rugged country before I learned my limitations. My brother Russell and I outgrew our SL70s and at age 12 I got my first full size motorcycle, a Hodaka 125. I can still remember that gorgeous chrome plated gas tank, what a beauty! Notice I was wearing all my safety gear! The face shield kept those grasshoppers from flying into your face at high speeds and covering up skin was important in case of a crash in all that dirt and rocks. I learned a lot about being a mechanic as I was responsible for keeping the bike running. 2
3 Chapter Director s Corner, Continued... John Read, AZ-S Chapter Director Machines became a hobby of mine and probably influenced my decision to volunteer for submarine duty in the Navy. Those fast attack boats are amazing war machines and the one I was assigned to had its keel laid when I was two years old. The name of the boat was USS Guardfish (SSN-612) and it was my home during four years of the Cold War. I saw a lot of the world in that boat but mostly through a periscope. That is a great school and I graduated from the early and late model Harley- Davidson course in I learned a lot about bikes at MMI and soon folks begin to learn you are a mechanic which is how I found my Gold Wing. My 1986 Aspencade had been sitting in a garage for over 10 years with only 36,000 miles on it. I fixed it up for the guy to sell but buyers were few and far between during that last recession so I ended up buying it from him cheap. These Honda Gold Wings are some wellengineered cruisers and I ride mine every day. This was also my ticket to meeting all the nice folks in GWRRA who share my passion for riding. It is an honor to serve as an officer in the organization and I look forward to a New Year with more adventures on the road. After I got out of the Navy in 1986 I played around with some old Triumph street bikes and learned to keep a Trident running. That was sure a challenge! I finally left San Diego and moved out to Arizona in 2002 where I soon heard about the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute. 3
4 Maryann & Joe Lisenby Earthquakes Happen So during the month of January Joe and I traveled to our home state of Alaska. Normal stuff for us in January, but the not so normal happened on Sunday morning, January 24 th. Earthquake! 7.1 at 1:31am. Rocking and rolling is all I can say for over a minute. It hit on the west side of Cook Inlet, about 65 miles west of Homer and about 160 miles southwest of Anchorage, at a depth of 76 miles. Our home is 40 miles North of Anchorage. It was felt from Juneau to Fairbanks. It was the largest of its kind ever recorded in Cook Inlet. We have lived in Alaska for 39 years and we have lived in the South Central area all of those years, both in Anchorage and in Palmer. We have adult children and grandkids that live on the Kenia Peninsula in both Seward and Kasilof. We all have rolled with every earthquake that we have felt in all those years, but this one was different. Alaskans mostly say when we feel one that it s good, when we have the small one s it just means the earth is letting off steam. Better to have small ones then a Big one. But if you didn t live in Alaska during the 1964, 9.6 quake, 7.1 is a big one. Items fell off of shelves as structures shacked. Two homes exploded from gas leaks while two more homes burned with them. A temblor opened cracks in a road near Kasilof. Our daughter s family was at our home with us at the time, sleeping in our basement. Joe and I were in the upstairs of our home rolling along. You could hear the pots and pans in my kitchen clanging away from the pot rake that hangs from the kitchen ceiling. My daughter was listening to the glasses hanging from a rake in our rec room area down stairs. The rocking and rolling was felt for over a minute, that was a long earthquake and I kept saying when it is going to stop! A lot of people said the same; it just kept going on, and on. We had over 30 aftershocks but I can t say I ever felt one, I m sure they continued for many hours and days after the initial earthquake, which is normal. So what do you do during an earthquake? If you re inside you stay inside and take cover, if you re outside you stay outside. In either place head for cover, under a table or desk inside or away from large trees and structures on the outside. Once it stops, gas leaks are of major concern, so check for gas leaks at meters where they connect to structures. Gas leaks are what caused the 2 homes to explode and burn on the Kenia. Our Alaska Red Cross was quick to respond to the Kenia area and set up shelters. Many hotel guests were rattled and made it to the street and lobby in skivvies. I d say put your pants on at least and take your coat, you never know how long you will be out of your room. I hope this story does not make you think twice about visiting our beautiful state. A ride up the Alcan Highway is just the greatest trip of a lifetime. Earthquakes happen, even in Arizona, be prepared. 4
5 Connie Jo Richtmyre If a Co-Rider Notices Something Seems Wrong, Pay Attention! I wanted this month s article to offer an example of why a Co-Rider is a critical component of a bike s team. The story below actually happened to members from Hibbing Minnesota. Several years ago, 3 couples from the MN-I Hibbing chapter decided to attend the Missouri District Rally in Branson. As they passed through the Minneapolis metro area, 3 additional member bikes joined the group. We traveled to Albert Lea Minnesota, about 90 miles to meet up with members from chapter C so we could travel together to Des Moines, Iowa for the night. When we arrived at the gas station in Albert Lea to tank up and introduce everyone, we of course were checking out each other s bikes as well. One of the members happened to notice that a bike from the Hibbing group had a rear tire which was split nearly in half and showing many of its cords. It should be noted at this time that this was a new-to-them used GL1800. The bike had not been serviced since it was purchased, only a quick visual inspection by the rider. They were towing an extremely heavy trailer, and were riding two up. Upon questioning the rider and co-rider, the co-rider stated the back end of the bike had felt funny, vibrated and seemed to sway since shortly after they started their journey, some 280 miles ago. Her husband had told her that nothing was wrong and not to worry about it. The nearest Gold Wing Dealer that could provide same day service was 20 miles away in Austin Minnesota. The group, now consisting of two trikes, and eight 2-wheeled wings decided we needed to split up, sending 4 bikes on to Des Moines and the remaining 2 bikes and 2 trikes to head to Austin to get the tire replaced. The group continuing on took the trailer so there would be one less thing to worry about. 5
6 Connie Jo Richtmyre If a Co-Rider Notices Something Seems Wrong, Pay Attention!, continued... The co-rider was switched to another bike to reduce the stress on the back tire, and off we went to get the tire replaced. At Trimble s Cycle in Austin, it was determined that both tires and the brakes badly needed replacing. Everything was in such poor condition that the bike most likely would have developed additional issues had those components not been replaced. After a two-hour repair and rain delay the group backtracked to Albert Lea to get on the interstate and head to Des Moines to for the night. The Co-Rider commented that the ride had significantly improved and she no longer felt the vibration. There are several take-away things to keep in mind: The Co-Rider noticed the bike didn t feel the same as it had previously, and her comments were ignored and brushed off. The bike was only visually inspected, by someone that hadn t inspected a wing before. The bike was not serviced by a certified mechanic familiar with Gold Wings prior to the start of the trip. It is important to check your bike throughout a trip to ensure that if problems develop they can be taken care of before they cause and accident, or breakdown Many Co-Riders aren t technical and don t fully understand the workings on the bikes they are riding on. However, they are able to distinguish when things are different or don t seem right. Why wouldn t you as a rider want to listen to your bike s team member? After all, their safety is affected same as the rider s should a problem develop. Women are often raised to notice things; something burning on the stove, a drippy faucet, the odor of natural gas in the home, the way an appliance sounds, strangers in the neighborhood. So, by listening to their comments regarding how the bike feels from their perspective it may save you a potential mechanical issue, an accident or a trip to the hospital. After all, many of us appreciate the extra set of eyes watching out for deer, debris and oncoming traffic. Why not with the bike itself? 6
