This year has started off with a
Bang! We had great Chili Cook
Off and Corn Hole Tournament.
Then World Of Wheels where
the Chapter collected $4,297.72 .
Put that with the money raised
from the Chili Cook Off and
Corn Hole Tournament that puts
the total at $4,607.72 for Children’s.
Then we had the Sweet Heart Dinner. The decorations, food and DJ were all
Awesome! Great Job All!
If you missed the events, you missed some good ones. But there is more to come
in the next few months. So, keep a check on the Chapter event calendar for
events and rides.
Don’t forget to take your bike into Rider’s to have it serviced for the up coming
riding season. There is more to having your bike serviced than having the oil
changed. They do a rigid multi point check from front to back. Many things we
tend to over look. So don’t hesitate, be ready to Ride and Have Fun.

Kick Stands Up!
By: David Pardue
Happy March HOGS!
I know if you’re like me, I’m sick of winter
weather and ready to put that kickstand up
and ride with my fellow HOGS!!
This was my first year working the World of
Wheels, and let me say hats off to Warren,
Rick and Julie for being there from open to
close, and to Brandon for being in the bear suit 2 of the 3 nights I was there, and to all others
that volunteered their time to benefit our charity Children’s Hospital.
I know we have members that are going to both the Louisiana and Alabama rallies in April, and
also we have Road Captains already posting some great rides on our web site, so keep a check
on the calendar for a ride coming up. And don’t forget Bama’s Boots, Bands and Bikes and the
SOA ride in May.\
Hope to see you on a ride, monthly meeting or Meet and Eat!
LET’S RIDE AND HAVE FUN! With Alabama’s BEST HOG CHAPTER BIRMINGHAM
HOGS!!

SECRETARY’S REPORT
By: Julie Gamble, Secretary
The meeting was called to order with the playing of the National Anthem. Then David introduced the new members to the HOG Family
Mark and Lori Cole/Chuck and Cheryl McLelland. He spoke about a
ride that Kevin Back is having to Alexander City on the 21st.
Rick asked how everyone was doing and thanked everyone that worked
the World of Wheels. With the money raised at WOW, Chili Cook off
and the Corn Hole Tournament we have already raised in the Thousands for Children’s Hospital. Also, during the WOW event there were
17 bike raffle tickets sold. See David Lee if you would like to sell some
of the tickets for the bike raffle.
We had a guest speaker from the Montgomery Chapter (Bill) in attendance to speak about the Alabama State Rally. History on a Harley. In
Montgomery there are a lot of historic sites to visit - Wright brother’s
first Flight school and the Blue Bell Plant. Make plans to attend this
year’s HOG rally in Montgomery.
David advised that the Chapter is in good financial shape for this time of the year.
Nicole wanted everyone to know that she is working on getting all of the members that have renewed and new members that have joined their
cards mailed out. We have 88 members. Remember to update your National HOG membership.
Rick said that he was glad to see returning members and new members too.
Lisa thanked everyone that helped with and entered the Chili Cook-off and the Corn Hole Tournament. On February 19th we will have the meet
and eat at Tortugas on Hwy 280 and then March the 21st there will be a new member/officer ride and a game day at the HOG room.

LADIES OF HARLEY
By: Sally Peek
Well, if you missed our Sweetheart Dinner on Valentine’s Day, you missed an awesome party!! First of
all, let me thank everyone who helped decorate, setup, prepare, cook and clean up for this event. The
steaks were out of this world and the entertainment
met all expectations. Just ask those that were on the
dance floor and singing karaoke! Didn’t know we
had such talent with a microphone. I took over one
hundred pictures that night, and if you had a couple
picture taken and would like a copy, just let me know
and I will gladly get one to you. It was great getting
together with everyone and especially seeing all the
new members’ party with us. Just an example of
how we get together and have a good time. Also, it was great seeing members that we have not seen in a while.
Welcome back!!
Speaking for myself, I am so ready to get on my bike. On March 21 st, George Phillips has scheduled a ride to Rattlesnake Saloon, in the Florence, AL area. I am going and invite all LOH to come and new members to spend the
day “riding and having fun”! George always has a wonderful ride, and another opportunity to spend with our HOG
family. Check the calendar for details. Look forward to seeing you there and if you are a Road Captain, come on
and support George on his ride. The more we have, the more organized and safe the ride will be.
Let me take this moment to thank those that have made suggestions to me recently on ideas for riding destinations.
Let me share them with you. One suggestion was to ride to the Galleria area to have a “movie night”. And the
other was to go to the Comedy Club. Meet at Riders Harley Davidson and drive across town for dinner and entertainment. These are great suggestions, and I will definitely organize these events when weather permits. I welcome more ideas and will do my best to “make it happen”. Thanks guys!!
Our HOG group has been asked to help in the planning and participation in the Bama’s Boots, Bands & Bikes
event benefiting our Military Heroes. From the VIP dinner on May 15 th to the fun filled day of bands and kids activities on Saturday, May 16th to the ride from The Pelham Event Center to Riders Harley Davidson Sunday the
17th. Along with HOG members, the organizers want as many “biker chicks” as possible to ride in the Sunday ride.
Let’s have a huge turnout for Sunday, May 17th and show everyone how our LOH can show off our bikes and riding skills. Actors Tommy Flannagan (Chibs) and Mark Boone, Jr. (Bobby) from the show Sons of Anarchy will be
the Hero Ambassadors & Special Guests honoring America’s Heroes. They too will lead the ride Sunday from
Pelham Event Center to Riders Harley Davidson. We will need as many Road Captains and HOG members to participate in making this event a success. If you are interested, you can contact me and I will make sure the organizers get that information. Also, you can go to www.bamasbootsbandsand bikes.com for more detailed information
on the entire weekend’s activities and purpose. I am so excited to be included in such an honorable event and welcome all Birmingham HOG members and LOH to be included.
As I mentioned in last month’s newsletter, I wanted to have a Pet Fashion
Show for our members to coincide with Riders Pet Adoption Day which will
be Saturday, June 27th. Again, this is not a competition but a day to honor our
“best friend” and give them and us an opportunity to meet and greet each other.
I will let you know the details as I learn them myself from the dealership.
Mark this date down so you can come spend the day showing off your “best
friend”.
Ride safe.

ACTIVITIES
By: Lisa Townsend
What a great month February was. The LOH
Sweetheart Dinner was awesome and the
February meeting was super delicious. I wish
I could have tried every single crock pot!!
This is really shaping up to be a fantastic year
at Birmingham HOG!!
The food for this month’s meeting will be
salad and deli sandwiches (while they last).
We’ll do another potluck later in the year
where the chapter provides the meat and everyone will bring a side dish. We’ve got some awesome cooks so I can’t wait!
This month we will have a game night on March 21st starting at 6:00pm. We’ll have Texas
Holdem and probably some cornhole, darts, and other board games. There will be plenty to
do for everyone! Just bring a snack to share.
We are in the planning stages of having a mystery dinner theater and I need to know who all
would like to play a part. Please email me at [email protected] or inbox me
via Facebook if you would like a part in it. I’m thinking this would be something fun to do
in April or May so if you have plans during those months let me know and we’ll try to
schedule around it.
I normally end by saying I’ll see you at the meeting but we will be out of town this month.
So ya’ll have fun and I hope to see you all at the Children’s Hospital visit on the 7th.

SAFETY
By: Tony Berenotto
Greetings fellow HOGs!! With snow, freezing
rain, and frigid temperatures; I know it doesn't
feel it, but Spring is right around the corner.
And that means – Riding Season!! Some of us
ride all year (with caveats for snow and ice for
yours truly), but most wait until the temperatures are more comfortable.
We have rides scheduled for March already:
Rick's Children's Hospital ride on the 7th, and
George's ride to the Rattlesnake Saloon on the
21st. Hopefully we will have a few more added between now and the end of the month. The
important thing to remember is that the weather is very unpredictable during the changing of
the seasons. Do not put your leathers or your heated gear away yet! Please keep all of your
cold-weather riding safety training in mind as the temperatures continue to rise. Conditions
can change suddenly during a day or weekend trip. You do not want to be caught without the
right gear. I know, I've been there – and I was miserable!
At last month's meeting we talked a little about tire safety. I am just going to review some of
that material for those that were unable to attend. Please, please, please, do your T-CLOCS
inspections before EVERY ride. Start by checking the overall condition of your tires. Look
for tread depth and wear, do not let your tires get to a bald condition! Check for weathering
and if the tires are evenly seated, make sure that the bead is not loosening. Look at the sidewalls, make sure there are no bulges and if your tires are old or if you have not ridden in a long
time, check for cracking. Tires can dry rot over time. While you are checking your tread
depth, look for tire damage and/or embedded objects. If you find one, get it evaluated by a
professional. Just because the object did not flatten your tire, does not mean it is safe to continue riding.
And lastly, but certainly not least, check your tire pressure!!! Check it before every ride or at
least weekly, check it more frequently when temperatures are changing. Remember that air
pressure decreases with decreasing temperatures. Most folks understand that tires that over
inflated or are subjected to excessive temperatures can blow out at the most inopportune times.
But, most do not realize that under-inflation causes equally dangerous conditions. Under inflated tires can have significant sidewall damage. The under inflated condition causes the
sidewalls to bulge. As you ride the temperature of the tire rises. This repeats as the tire cools
and reheats, perhaps over and over. The weakened sidewalls can let go at any time – probably
at the worst possible time!!
That's it for this month. Please be safe out there; keep the greasy side down and your alertness
level up!!

LET’S RIDE!

Rex Parvin
Through the cold weather it is good to catch a day
or two in Alabama where the weather is just right
for a ride. The Road Captains have met to get a
game plan for this riding season. Our challenge as
a group is we have been wired to plan our activities
the night before, so planning a ride a month off
seems to be difficult for some of us. We will work
on this and try to get more rides posted.
Rides Planned
Friday Night, 3/6 – Bike Night at Rider’s HD. Hours are 6:00 PM till 10:00 PM. There
will be a band, vendors, and food available.
Saturday, 3/7 – Ride to Children’s of Alabama. Please try to join us at 11:00 AM at
the hospital. The kids are depending on us.
Saturday, 3/21 – Ride to the Snake. Leave
McDonalds in Gardendale at 8:00 AM for
the Rattlesnake Saloon in Tuscumbia for
lunch. 145 miles one way. Rain cancels and
below 45 degrees.
NO OTHER RIDES have been posted.

Cowboys and Engines
By: George Phillips
Several years ago I rode with a group of Birmingham HOG members on an Iron Butt ride.
The goal was 1000 miles in less than 24 hours. We left Pelham at 4:00 A.M. and rode to
Longview, Texas for lunch at a Subway. I kind of was hoping for a Texas Steak but guess it
was a good thing we didn’t eat that much since we were planning to be back in Birmingham
before midnight. We actually got back at 11:30 that night. The few of you that were on the
ride will remember how much fun we had. The rest of you probably think we were crazy.
It was a very enjoyable 1,000 plus miles and 19 ½ hour ride but the best part was the people
that were there and friendships and memories that were made.
After the ride I wrote an article that some of you may remember. In it was a little story about
us stopping at a service station early in the morning, before day break, to ask directions on
how to bypass a traffic jam on the interstate because of an accident that had it shut down.
After the attendant gave us some directions, which work very well I may add, he noticed the
bikes setting out front and asked where we were headed. We told him about out plan to ride
1,000 miles from Birmingham to Longview for lunch and back in less than 24 hours. His
last comment as we walked out the door was “Well I guess cowboys still exist”.
That comment “Well I guess cowboys still exist” stuck in my mind. I never thought of myself as a cowboy. But then you can’t help but to think about how similar we are to cowboys
when we ride. We mount our Harleys and sit in the saddle with pride, just as cowboys
would when they mounted their horse. Rather than the sound of the hooves hitting the
ground we hear the thump of the big v-twin. The power of both is awesome. We ride for
hours with the wind in our face and the smell of the world around us. And finally at the end
of the ride when we settle down for chow we talk about old times with old and new
friends… we laugh and create memories that only this moment will provide. These will be
new memories that we will talk about again at a later time, maybe at the end of the next ride.
We enjoy that feeling of freedom when we ride our Harleys across our great country and enjoy all of the beauty that it offers. The smell of the fresh air, the change in temperature when
you drop down into a valley or cross a river combined with the unobstructed sights simulating the senses like noting else can, all of this had to be what early cowboys felt when they
rode around our awesome nation.
The next time you throw your leg over the saddle and head out, remember the cowboys of
yesteryear that helped tame this great country of ours. Enjoy our awesome land and all it has
to offer and give thanks for what we have.
Ride Safe and Have Fun!

In past years we met monthly at one of our advertisers for the
monthly “Peel & Stick”, preparing the newsletters for mailing.
It would be a lot of fun meeting with each other on a weeknight
to have dinner and refreshments, catch up on news, and visit
with each other. Now the newsletter is processed, stamped and
mailed out without us doing it.
We are leaving out the newsletter and just picking a place each
month to meet up and catch up. The times and places will also
be posted on the ride calendar.
