At the organizational meeting over coffee, which I paid for, there were five prospects including myself who were expressing an interest in joining.<br />The bulletin sent out encouraged prospective members to ride their bike to the meeting, discuss setting up and organizing a motorcycle club and then end the meeting with a ride. Observing the meeting but not participating was the local plumber, a cowboy and the owner of the restaurant none of whom ride motorcycles. The cowboy did want to know if he could join with his horse substituting for a motorcycle. He was denied entry.<br />Of all the prospects who attended only myself, Rod, and John actually brought our bikes to that first meeting. Rod had a 500cc Enfield he bought in India, and didn't think he could make that Sundays ride, so John and I did a small ride.<br />The two bikers who were actively encouraging me to get the club up and running never even showed up themselves.<br />The first meeting was less than stellar, but undaunted we decided to have another meeting in two weeks when the weather was better. The subsequent meeting had a poorer showing with only two bikes in attendance and fewer prospects. John and I went for a ride to celebrate the new club. No meetings and no members have joined since, and John has moved away.<br />Thus membership is down to one member, me.<br />In a town the size of Castor, 932 residents, new prospects for the club are slim.<br />So now memberships in the Castor Motorcycle Club are being offered thru this blog. The only requirements needed are:<br /><br />1. You must ride a motorcycle.<br />2. You must live on earth.<br /><br />As we are a casual club there will be no meetings to attend, no fees to pay, and no colors to wear. Unfortunately we cannot offer charter memberships, as this is the second offering. If you think you have the right stuff and are straining to become a member, act now as this is a limited one time offer that may never come again.<br />What you need to do is leave a comment with your first name and type of bike you read and you will be an honorary member of the club. That's it, that's all it takes to become a member of a motorcycle club, you will be the envy of your friends when you flash your own homemade card [if you wish to make one yourself] and tell them you are a member of this exclusive club.<br />This offer is only available thru this blog in the above mentioned manner and no phone calls, e-mails, or personal requests orally will be accepted.Silverwingerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14793760945572716116noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6164662017889673723.post-19742659986341930962007-03-19T17:53:00.000-06:002007-03-29T20:58:39.260-06:00Motorcyclephobic<div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUq2T77mb15eBFRhRzahT6MiuHrj1KnR2cmI89EdB7q0HzIQH-2-6kZjwrf6fmA6p399aAOkiDqNhKLF-eyHm0mm6_y-Fb_q0eDGWZerfYfElCmLNkU0_JrMU8jEEvV-Ru1kRjPEemkMg/s1600-h/BGD+Snow+Run+2005+022+(600+x+450).jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5043788231298382018" style="DISPLAY: block;
