IT’S ON!!!! This is to help curb the anxiety that comes from not getting to go riding now that cooler temps have set in. (for Florida, anyway) Gut check time!!!!

We will be meeting at TC’s in Navarre at 10:30am on Feb. 2nd.


The plan is to ride from Navarre over to Pirates Cove in Alabama. When we get there we can get some “antifreeze” in our system for the ride back.

DRESS WARM!!! Layering is the key!

Don’t forget your helmet.


Oh, and just for the record, Kenny Perkins and myself rode from Destin to Pensacola last week in 34* temps. Yep, it was cold! Nope, I don’t have a windshield! Yep, it was cold. Oh, I said that already.

This is a sanctioned F&I St. 36 ride.

"Sticker club"

Please remove all IAFF markings from your vehicle when selling, trading-in, etc. The IAFF logo is universally known and respected and identifies both them and their family members as part of an elite profession and connected to Organized Labor.

IAFF decals and emblems should not be given or sold to any individuals or non-family members who are not IAFF members. What you perceive to be a friendly gesture may be viewed by a police officer as illegal. Police in some states have interpreted the displaying of an IAFF or fire department logo by individuals who are not firefighters or the immediate family member of a firefighter as impersonating a firefighter, which is illegal in most states.


DO THE RIGHT THING.  REMOVE IAFF DECALS WHEN DISPOSING OF A MOTOR VEHICLE IN ANY WAY.
