Golden Triangle Trikers

Texas Gulf Coast Trikers

Hello from Texas,

The Golden Triangle Trikers welcome anyone with a love for trikes to attend our get togethers, which will be posted on the branch website, Trike Talk and/or the printable newsletter. If anyone is ever in the Golden Triangle area (Beaumont, Port Arthur, Orange or surrounding area), send me an e-mail or call and leave a message.

Everyone is also invited to join Texas Gulf Coast Trikers at our regular monthly gathering at I-HOP in Kemah for dinner at 5:30 pm and the meeting at 6 pm on the first Friday of the month. Kemah is about halfway between Houston and Galveston. This invitation also includes any rides or other events in the future.

Several members of our chapter have begun going out for lunch and a movie every Tuesday. First-run movies for $.50 and an all-you-can-eat buffet at Golden Corral for $7.59 is a pretty good way to spend an entire afternoon. Anyone who wishes to join us is welcome.

Because the Lone Star Rally in Galveston will be going the first Friday in November, there will be no regular meeting. We will be doing a ride to Galveston that day and everyone is welcome to join us.

Everyone ride safe and be careful,

Hello from the Ozarks Trikers Branch,

We will be meeting the second Saturday of November at Charlies Steak & Ale in Forsyth, MO at 11 am. At our meeting, we will be discussing plans for a Christmas get together.

This has been a rough year for quite a few of our members with health problems and, of course, the hurricane that hit the east coast. I am glad to say everyone has made it through and we are still kickin'.

We are expecting good things for the Triadics next year, including our 2017 Reunion, which will be two days longer this year. We hope to add a bunch of new stuff for our time there. The folks at Wanderlust RV have been good to us, but this will be the last year for Eureka Springs and we will be voting on a change of location for 2018. If you haven't made it to one yet, I suggest you make this last one.

You all be safe and get a little ride time in before the winter!

ARIZONA

Arizona Trikers

Howdy, everyone, from Arizona,

Sorry that we haven't been sending in updates regularly. As many of you may know, Mike "T" has been battling cancer. We're concentrating on him beating this challenge and shooting for being able to ride after the first of 2017. I have also been waging a major battle with my health, as well. We've been able to keep in contact with a few members and have been trying to get more assistance in getting more riders/members.

Keep riding safely, hydrate and BE FREE ON THREE.

Mr. T & Skid

OREGON

Salem Oregon Triadics

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving to you all,

Hope you have a great day. We have been having light rain for lots of days here in Salem - not so good for trikes. Wally put his into his hobby shop and will consider issues during the winter. The Salem Branch held its regular meeting in October and then also ate together on the third Saturday. Nice to get together with our Triker friends. Come join us. Stay safe and warm.

Best Wishes,

Wally and Marsha McPheeters,
Branch Leaders, Salem Oregon Triadics

We have group rides on the first and third Sunday of the month. All are welcome to join us if you are ever in Sonoma County, California.

Ride safe,

GEORGIA

West Georgia Trikers

We meet on the 1st Thursday night of each month. Several members of our branch volunteer at Rachel's Wish every Sunday. Rachel's Wish is a program for handicapped children. They help children with physical and mental disabilities.

We have begun a new volunteer opportunity for those that want to help on the 3rd Thursday evening of the month. A local place called the Christian community council gives meals and boxes of food to the poor and needy. Volunteers pack the boxes and help load them in cars. We are doing the same this month. Still working at horse arena (Rachel's Wish) with disabled kids.
