Sometimes, this position can be tough. Then there are those whom reach out, and we can help,
with even the smallest efforts on our part, but greatly needed by others. When I get the phone
call with the bad news, I struggle. But then I’m afforded an opportunity to help the members or
family members, by offering up our wonderful chapter resources, which you have always come
through. I would like to thank you for your unwavering support to our chapter.
I would also like to extend my gratitude for all the support from all of our Chapter Officers, and
Support Staff. Without them, we would not have the active and fun filled chapter that we do. I tip
my hat to each of you with a grateful heart.
That all said, January was a very busy month. We started off on
the 1st, with our North/South Potluck
lunch with 32 members and guests in
attendance. A great time was had,
with great food, desserts and lot’s of
fun things. We even did something
new and entertaining. We auctioned
off the leftovers, which helped to cover the cost
of the chapter provided food.
Then we were planning our Chapter Gathering, only to have father winter to
dump 7.5 inches of snow on us, and pretty much brought the low country to
gridlock. So we had to delay our Gathering, and combined it with our Meet
to Eat, enjoying the back room at Sticky Fingers in Summerville, with 21
members and guests in attendance. The food was great, and a fun time had
by all. We even helped out a member in need, who blew out a tire on the
way there, and arranged for them to get mobile again so they didn’t have to
walk home in the rain.
We followed that up with 8 of us attending the SC District All
Members Forum. We sat through a seminar, that we didn’t realize was a seminar
until they put a slide up, about half way through. This is the new style of
presentations under the University Trainer program. We got caught up on some
of the news, upcoming events, and a good time with distant friends. A big
thanks to Buddy and Kim, and their team, for a fun filled event.
Then we had a great Team Meeting, where we continued plotting away at the
future events and rides for the chapter, with 10 members in attendance. I would remind you, this

meeting is not just for the team. We welcome attendance and inputs from all our members, and
we have received some great ideas this way. Thank you.
After that, Craig led a Mystery Ride off to parts around the Low Country, and ended up eating
lunch at Rodney Scott’s BBQ in downtown Charleston, with 8 riders enjoying some great food.
The weather was great, and the ride was a good January ride.
Then we were off to the next Meet to Eat, where we changed our plans and went to the local
American Legion Post and supported their Spaghetti Fund Raiser dinner. We had 12 members to
come out to support this effort, and we thank you for your support.
Then came the big event… the Chapter Oyster Roast, where we
had some great member support, roasting the oysters, cooking
the hamburgers and hot dogs, and again, some awesome
covered dishes and desserts.
This is always a fun time. And
with an attendance of over 33
people, we got to see some of
our friends from the past also,
and we hope they will come
back to support the chapter.
Our last event for the month of
January, we did something very different. We went to the Flower
Town Players performance of “She Kills Monsters”, a hilarious play
about a young women’s journey in learning about her sister after
her death, by playing dungeons and dragons. We had a great time,
with 10 of our members in attendance, where some of us went out to
eat afterwards, and found a new Meet to Eat possibility.
Now the sad news. I recently received a phone call from one of our members, who had just
learned they had cancer. The prognosis is not good, so they are trying to get their affairs in
order. To do that, they need to sell the GL 1800 they just bought used last year. It is a 2001
GL1800 with just over 100K miles. It is black, and they are asking $6,800. This bike was
previously owned by another one of our members, who kept immaculate records and
maintenance on the bike. Anyone interested can contact Mike Melton, at 843-847-1444, and we
can make arrangements for the contact.
And, as I write this, there is good news and bad news. Bad news is, Craig Miller is in the
Summerville hospital. The good news is he has been moved out of the emergency room, out of
the Intensive Care Unit, and now in a normal room. We expect he will remain there for a few
more days as they run tests and try to get him better. Keep Craig in your prayers.
For those who remember Dan Pittman, he is doing well in his new home up in Hopkinton, MA.
His son-in-law and family look out for him up there. We miss you Dan.
Until next time, ride safe, ride often, and be thankful,
Mike Melton

Assistant Chapter Directors 2017 Chapter Couple of the Year

Another Year has passed As your outgoing Couple of the Year, 2017 has been a great year and a lot of fun for us. By
now, most of you know that our goal was to change things up a little and break the mold of
repeating the same things year after year. We tried our best to start a few new things with the
Chapter, including “giving back” to our community.
We began in June with a breakfast meeting at Sunrise Bistro, followed by a Mystery
Scavenger Hunt Ride with an “Amazing Race” twist of solving and following clues around the
greater Summerville area and ending with lunch and prizes in a local park. This was, of course,
a Fundraising event to benefit One80 Place, a homeless shelter for Veterans in Charleston, in
memory of Roger Burriss. We followed that up with a second Fundraiser Mystery Ride in
October starting from Logan’s in Summerville with questionnaires to fill out at stops along the
route, ending with more prizes and an ice cream social in a Eutawville park. Later in October, a
group of us delivered a $400 check to a grateful One80 Place to help in supporting their efforts
with our Veterans, down on their luck, and giving them the tools needed to improve their lives.
As a change up for our annual Christmas Party in December, rather than exchanging gifts, our
Chapter collected over 80 unwrapped toys for Toys for Tots and presented our gifts and a check
to representatives of the Marines and Navy, valued at over $1,000. Great Job!!!
At the same event, we played a Trivia game and gave away prizes, and had some fun with a
short round of Pictionary.
At our Annual North/South Dinner on New Years Day, we auctioned off the leftover food and
collected another $50 to go into our Treasury. You’ll hear more on that subject in our
Treasurer’s first newsletter article on the following page.
As we start 2018, we hope to continue to come up with new fun ways to make our Gatherings
more exciting and inviting in an effort to increase member participation. In addition, we are
making some changes to our Newsletter, also trying to make it more interesting and still
relevant. As always, we welcome your comments, new ideas and articles.
We sincerely hope that our efforts are taking hold and that
more members will come up with suggestions for more rides,
maybe even plan and/or lead a ride to one of your favorite
places, and new ideas to have fun at our Chapter Gatherings
and other events.
Thanks for all your support in 2017.
Let’s make 2018 even better!

Important information for all members:
The Chapter Treasury is quite low due to recent
operating expenditures. Just a reminder… All GWRRA
membership dues go to the National Organization and
NOT one cent comes back to the Chapters.
In order to ensure we have the funds necessary to take
care of the chapter throughout the year ahead, we are
implementing a few new things:
1. We are starting a ride donation of $1.00 per person for each Chapter Ride
(other GW Chapters have found this a painless way to keep their treasury
healthy).
2. We are planning a Progressive Dinner/Ride in the Spring and will charge $5.00
per person to participate. This will be a Mystery Ride to three members homes,
each serving a separate course. All funds collected will go to the Chapter
Treasury, NOT to the participating hosts. This promises to be a fun event and we
hope to see you all there.
All members are encouraged to participate in the 50-25-25 drawing as that is
our primary source of funds. Remember, we the chapter, are responsible for our
own financial health.
Have you got an idea… please be sure to share it.
Thank You for your help!

Newsletter Changes for 2018 We are adding some color, new fonts and borders throughout to start.
Rider Education Safety Corner has changed to Ride Coordinator. Craig will continue
submitting articles and we will see articles from District Rider Educator Rich Kitco as well.
What Happened Last Month page is gone. Everyone receives g-mails from Mike in advance of
those events and anyone interested in (or able to) taking part in would have already.
What’s Happening This Month and Beyond page will continue to focus on upcoming Chapter
events. We will include District news and a few local events that may be of interest for short
notice rides. What’s Going On In The Area may be incorporated in this page as well.
The Special Days of (the month) are gone. Seemed to be a lack of interest, but could return if
we get renewed interest.
Calendars reduced from three months to two.
New Trivia Rules for 2018…
You have 24 hours to submit the correct answer.
Winner will be drawn from all the correct answers received.
As before, you cannot win two months in a row, everyone has a chance.
Five free tickets will be awarded at the next Chapter Gathering you attend.
Hidden Member Numbers gone due to lack of participation.
For Sale pages will continue. Please let us know if you want your ads to run again each month
and if your articles have been sold. If we don’t hear from you, we will assume they have
been sold. Thanks for your help with this.
We sincerely hope you enjoy reading the revised newsletter. Our goal is to make it more
appealing and remain informative. Any suggestions for additional changes, new features, etc.,
are welcomed.

We’re playing a little BINGO at
the February Gathering.
We’ll have BINGO cards for sale
following lunch.
Please bring a roll of pennies
to use as markers.

Levels Are your Levels up to date? Do you need a Co-Rider Course, CPR/FA, ARC, TRC to be
current? Do you even know the status of your Levels?
Last month’s newsletter article was dedicated to checking your own levels status. You can
access your info from the GWRRA website under Rider Ed at “My R.E. Information”.
Your District Team is working on providing as many training opportunities as we can work in.
Keep an eye on the District Bulletin where everything in the District is listed.
We are working on Chapter Levels Reports and getting them to the Chapter Directors so they
will know the Levels health of the Chapter.
Why the emphasis on Levels you may ask. The GWRRA Levels program was instated to keep
the Members safe on the road in an inherently dangerous sport. Think about it, it is pretty
dangerous on the highway with all the distracted drivers as well as the volume of traffic now
days. Some riders scoff at the Levels because it advocates ATGATT but if you have ever
experienced the dreaded Motorcycle Road Rash you will know why the gear is required. It is
just good common sense!
So let’s make South Carolina safe.
Richard Kitko Editor’s Note: For more detailed instructions, you can

Chapter Ride Coordinator
Well, the first planned ride for the Chapter was
Saturday, January 20th. We had 4 bikes and 7
people. It was a great day ride through Moncks
Corner up to Jamestown, then to Mount Pleasant
and ended up at Rodney Scotts BBQ in downtown
Charleston. It was a great day for a ride. The food
was great and the day could not have been better.
If you have a destination in mind let me know and
I will try to work it in. We are trying to plan some
fun rides to get the chapter more active and we
can’t do that without support from everyone. I will
also try to have some rides during the week for those
who can ride, although it might be without much notice.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
Ponderings (Some Things to Think About, But Not Too Seriously)
I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.
Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup?
There are two kinds of pedestrians . . . The quick and the dead.
If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from?
Why doesn’t glue stick to the inside of the bottle?
The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.
If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a song about him?
Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.
Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster?
All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.
In the 60’s, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.
How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?
Healthy is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
If money doesn’t grow on trees then why do banks have branches?
Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.
How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?
Life is sexually transmitted.
Since bread is square, then why is sandwich meat round? (to be continued)

It’s winter, but we are lucky enough here in SC to have awesome riding weather, even in February.
But the weather can change quickly, and the temperatures drop quickly. Always carry extra gear so
you can layer up if those temps fall. Be on the lookout for black ice. If it looks wet, it may be ice. We
want to have FUN riding. Be careful out there, and prepared for the elements.
Note: If you are new to Chapter ‘G’, or if we've missed your birthday or anniversary, please send an email to Mike Melton at [email protected]. Include your name, birthday (no year needed) and anniversary (also no year needed).
