JUNE 2018

FOURTH TRIADICS FAMILY REUNION

MAY 30 - JUNE 3, 2018

The fourth annual Triadics Reunion was held May 30 - June 3, 2018 at the Cloud Nine RV Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Except for a one-hour hail storm that deposited golf-sized hail Saturday night after the banquet, the weather was great all week. Lefty did a wonderful job of grilling for the Saturday night banquet and for hot dog night.

Several awesome rides were done, including the Crater of Diamonds Park & Jim Coleman Crystal Mine. Several couples dug crystals on two different days and went home with some very valuable crystals. Several zip lined 6 times across the mine one day. Several local rides were done to Hot Springs National Park & the downtown bath houses to soak & enjoy a massage. One ride took highway 7 all the way to Jasper and Ponca Bible Camp, returning south on highway 123 for a 275 mile ride.

Several local restaurants were a hit, along with the national bathtub races held in the heart of the city that is put on annually by local firemen.

The location of the 2019 reunion will be announced when that has been decided.

Hello Trikers,

It’s riding weather now, so watch the cages. As far as Triadics Central Branch news goes, it’s hotter than a popcorn fart here in Toto Land, so try to keep the birdbath full for the critters & the water bowls full. I’m adding a flyer to the news, which has all the info ya need to have a good time at the event. The event is on, set in stone, rain or shine. I still need to put an invite on Facebook Triadics Central Branch Group for the sole purpose of keeping track of how much food will be needed. So, any FB user planning to attend, be sure to reply to the invite. To those I know are not on FB, i’ll send a flyer to snail mail, text, email or whatever. I’ll put a donation jar out but remember “Free on Three - Never a Fee”

This will be our first event as a Triadics Branch so we’ll see how it goes. Hope to see ya there.

Enough said.

Salem Oregon Trikers

Hello from the west coast.

These are motorcycle riding days, finally. Sometimes it's cool; sometimes it's hot. We just get out there and go. We saw a Polaris with a roof this week. The owners like it. What a lot of wonderful ideas for trikes are to be seen. We live in a retirement home and we give rides to 'old people' all the time. You can't believe the smiles we get.

The Salem Triadics meet twice a month to eat and sometimes ride. We invite you to call us and come ride with us. There is always room for more trikes. Safe and happy riding to all.
