Golden Triangle Trikers

Texas Gulf Coast Trikers

Hello from Texas,

I have had five rounds of chemo, along with B12 and Iron IV. Keep the prayers and thoughts coming, because they are greatly appreciated.

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.

Everyone ride safe and be careful,

Outlaw Jim

Hello from the Ozarks Trikers Branch,

We want to remind everyone that the home Branch located in Kissee Mills, Missouri will be having our third Fall Fling in September 2017. Everyone is welcome and we hope to see you there.

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 Fall to all of you.

Wally and I drove a 'cage' away for a number of days and learned more about eastern Oregon. If you watch Gold Rush on TV, Todd is now mining out of Baker City and we just were there. What a lovely state to ride in - rolling hills and interesting geology. We found a canyon like a mini-Grand Canyon just south of Madras. It is in Cove Palisades State Park and it holds the Billy Chinook Lake. Boy, is it a great ride down to lake level. There are campgrounds. We will have our monthly icecream eat/get together on Saturday Oct. 22 at 1 PM at the Dairy Queen on Market Street in Salem, just west of Hwy 5. Hope to see some folks. It's been really wet and windy the last week - apparently the remains of a cyclone in the Pacific, but there also have been a couple of days off. Ride safely.

Happy Halloween.

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.
