IF WE HAVE NOT TALKED LATELY PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO REVIEW A SUMMARY OF MY PLATFORM BELOW (newest items at the bottom) THANKS FOR LOOKING ~ RCHR can do better ~ ~ Peace & Freedom of bikers at large require it ~ ~ Our club depends upon it ~ Our members deserve it ~ ~ If you don't like the way things are gong in the RCHR then CHANGE "IT" ~
Vote for A Restored RCHR ~ Restoring the founders' vision for friends getting together, riding and having fun! Vote for Demonstrated Fun ~ How about this campaign... as much fun for you as it was for me? Vote for PROVEN LEADERSHIP 1) Project leader in software development, e.g., Compaq Corp. 2) Scout, Cubmaster, Scoutmaster, Venture Adviser for many years 3) Beaded Wood Badge candidate (Adult Leadership Development) 4) Headed Youth Leadership Development courses 5) Trained Scout leaders, and trained Scout trainers 6) Trained in basic and advanced wilderness first aid I vow to support ~ MORE FUN at meetings and on rides... many ideas... plan on MORE FUN! I vow to support ~ Bikes ~ Hot Rods ~ Libations ~ Fire Arms ~ Women (men (for the women bikers)) ~ ~ Fish? ~ Horses ~ Sheep ~ Jack Asses ~ Bayonets ~ I vow to support ~ HOG MEMBERSHIP HIGHLY ENCOURAGED - Although being a member of HOG is not (currently) required, it would be HIGHLY encouraged, even rewarded I vow to support ~ Frivolous board meetings topics tabled (INDEFINITELY) - like complaints from current/previous board members about how a board member is performing their duties... we are all doing the best we can... if you don't like the way an officer is performing then run for that office at the next election... I vow to support ~ NEW MEMBER RIDES EVERY MONTH - New Member rides of 100+/- miles to be held 1st weekend following EVERY general meeting! I vow to support ~ PICK UP RIDES FOR ALMOST ALL WEEKENDS - Pick up rides on the calendar for every weekend unless there is another day ride already scheduled, and, if there is a weekend ride scheduled, a pickup ride for anyone that wants to ride and cannot go for the weekend I vow to support ~ Ride Leader Awareness - SLOWEST RIDER IN 2ND RANK - The slowest rider would be in the 2nd rank on rides to avoid the leader loosing the back half of the formation, this is an ooooold strategy that keeps the group together, does not encourage a rider to ride out of their comfort zone, keeps the ride from becoming a race and reduces the amount of slamming on of the binders going into turns. I vow to support ~ OLD STYLE "PROGRESSIVE DINNER RIDE" - The Progressive Dinner Ride would be brought back with long rides between stops, NO games, NO competition and NO prizes - just riding and eating. I vow to support ~ Cool Overnight Rides - More Overnight Camping Trips - encouraged trips to - The Redwood Run - Camp Komratto - Crescent City - San Simeon - other coastal, lake, and mountain locations I vow to support ~ Cool Semi~Annual Rides - other semi-annual rides would be encouraged,e.g., the River Boat Excursion Dinner Ride in Grants Pass, Virginia City, etc. I vow to support ~ SUBSIDIZED RCHR EVENTS - e.g., the Poker Run, the Progressive Dinner Ride, the Christmas party, and by subsidizing, let the club pay for overage costs for T-shirts, food, commemorative beer glasses, possibly sales of dinner tickets at a reduced price because... and... (possibly partial) subsidizing of MSF training courses. I vow to support ~ BOARD MEMBERS AT LARGE - re-establishment of (some number (?) of) "Board Members At Large," these board members provide extra bodies to volunteer at board meetings to aid/assist board committee activities I vow to support ~ FREE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY DINNER TICKETS - to be given to... guests at general meetings, person who submitted the best joke for the newsletter, person who submitted the best cartoon for the newsletter, etc. I vow to support ~ PRIMARY ASSUMPTION OF RISK DOCTRINE - add words to the RCHR waiver... "pursuant to... the assumption of risk doctrine applies... your participation is at your own risk," and require everyone re-sign the updated waiver, for whatever it's worth. I vow to support ~ GENERAL MEMBERSHIP $$$ APPROVAL - add to the constitution the clause that *IF* the board should decide that the club needs to spend some large amount ("large amount to be determined") then the proposal shall be presented to the general membership for discussion and approval... or disapproval... I vow to support ~ "CALL-TO-RIDE-NOW" LIST - a list of folks who are game for a ride... whenever... so, if you want to go for a short short and you would like company then call someone on the list... I vow to support ~ AFFORDABLE RIDES - more day rides, and, many rides in the past have been overnight rides that stay in a hotel, and, many folks do not have the funds to continuously go on such rides, but, THEY WANT TO RIDE... so... more affordable are day rides and overnight camping trips, campsite prices are low, take your own grub to bar-b-q and have some fun around the campfire throwing sticks at a skunk or... I vow to support ~ NO CHANGE FOR THE SAKE OF CHANGE - many things have been changed for the sake of change, i.e., that's what it was called in the "other club" and we must be different - NO WE DON'T... a New Member Ride or a 100 +/- ride can still be a New Member Ride or a 100 +/- ride (the "100 +/- ride" was the name used during that brief period of no club andtherefore there were no members and therefore no "new members," or the "Bone Award" name had to be changed because that is what it was called in the "other club" - WRONG... we had an excess of "little bones" to give to "bone recipients" and it was a fun thing the way it was, or the Progressive Dinner Ride name and format change - well... if we DO keep the Games and Grub run for folks who want to play games and eat then that is fine but we need the Progressive Dinner Ride for those who want to ride and eat. I vow to support ~ NEW ADVERTISING PLAN - make a new effort to solicit advertising from local businesses, additionally, there is a way the club can make money by have relevant links displayed in a side bar... I vow to support ~ BOD MEETING AGENDA TO MEMBERS - email the agenda to the members prior to a board meeting, then, if a member is concerned about an agenda topic the member would have the opportunity to attend the board meeting and be informed BEFORE it was history. I vow to support ~ POST BOD MEETING AND GENERAL MEETING MINUTES TO THE WEBSITE... - in a log-on area, similar to the newsletter I vow to support ~ Guest Speakers - each board member will be responsible for a guest speaker at one of the monthly general meetings I vow to be a ~ FULL TIME DIRECTOR 1) weekly status reports - accomplishments this week - plan for next week 2) weekly lunch/dinner w/each member - concerns, suggestions, jokes, other ideas, etc. I vow to combat BS!
