From the Chapter Director Just Another Unusual Month

Well we want to start this article out by saying THANKS! Thanks to all of you that took time out of your busy schedule to volunteer your time at the Rest Stop! Seeing as we had some good donations this time around we did rather well this time, clearing around $500.00. With that we did have a glitch or 2 with one of them being that we had a no show to take care of the booth. As most of you know this is our fund raiser to which we use these funds to pay for all sorts of items including classes and safety items, and without the rest stop funds we wouldn’t be able to pay for these things. I note this as I received a call one morning from the rest stop attendant stating that there wasn’t anyone there to open and run the coffee stop! I was at work at the time and not able to run off to the rest stop but thanks to the Harter’s we got it up and running. So with that said, I ask if you are scheduled and can’t make it please let me know so we can do our best to get someone, as we don’t want to lose our status with the DOT!

Hard to believe but this is an article that I figured would not come about! I told Mr. Harter that he may not see anything from me this month as I didn’t want to type one fingered. Now some of you may ask what is he talking about? For those of you that made the April Chapter Meeting, you would have seen a sore depressed Chapter Director with his arm in a sling! As of the chapter meeting I had my arm in a sling due to what was diagnosed as a fracture below the elbow. Well that all started when I slipped off the porch one Thursday morning. The slip caused me to fall on my knee and skin the knee up. There was no sign of any damage to the arm so nothing more thought of about an injury! Well Saturday came along with some drilling to be done on my truck. Ok nothing out of the ordinary until the drill caught some tough metal and caused it to jerk! Ok again so what but as time went by it hurt more and more. Now it’s Sunday, and the pain is bad, so off to urgent care! After a few hours, some x-rays, a few bone fragments were found but didn’t see a fracture so Dr. required a CT Scan. Well the following day I received a call stating there was a fracture and that I need to see an Orthopedic Dr. Ok I schedule that appointment but can’t get in for 10 days, so again another hurry up and wait. Finally, the Orthopedic appointment arrives, I see the Dr. and he says I am sure glad you got the CT scan as I can see it really well and you have a few bone chips floating around in there but no fracture! Makes me wonder if these doctors really know what is going on, but decided that the orthopedic Dr. had the best news I had heard in a couple of weeks so decided I would take his findings and run with it, and run I did, right home and jumped on the bike for the well-deserved and needed ride!

Well it is now Saturday the 16th and the day of sorrow! My bike is now scheduled to leave me for it’s trip to Salt Lake City! I really don’t think of it as sorrow but more of excitement !For those not at the last meeting my bike will no longer have 2 wheels as it is being converted to a trike! My age is telling me that it is time to ride a trike! Well actually it is not my age telling me but instead the body itself! I have decided that I will feel much safer especially with Patti or anyone else behind me riding on 3 wheels instead of 2 so will be doing just that soon!

Now with all that said we move on to the Chapter Social on the 21st. Thanks go out to Ken Glasby and John Doughty for making the arrangements for a very nice social at Johnny’s at Fife! We had a great dinner and even better company! Thanks Again guy’s!

Next on our agenda is our maintenance workshop at the Harter’s but due to time constraints (our editor wanting articles on time) I won’t be able to make any statements on that!

Well in closing I will have to start working on my report for next month next week as unless I do it while on the road, I won’t have much time to do it! As many of you know after 38+ years with the Boeing Company I am going to be saying good bye! Last year Patti decided that in October of 2016 she was going to be calling an end to Boeing and I would be calling it sometime at the end or 2017 or early 2018. Well the company made an offer to us that allowed me to do it earlier than expected, and so I will do it on the 20th of May and Patti at the end of November! So backing up a bit about being on the road, we are going to leave for Salt Lake City on the 21 and will be picking up the trike on the 23rd. We will spend a few days in Utah before heading back home with a stop in Kennewick for the Dessert Spring Fling over the Memorial Day weekend then home just in time for our June meeting!

Well enough jabbering! Time to get this sent off to our editor, and will touch base with things that I didn’t touch on next month!

See you all at the May meeting!

ASSISTANT CHAPTER DIRECTORS:

Pick and Choose

I read some posts recently on GoldwingDocs.com. This site is a Goldwing Owners forum with a ton of great information, where other Goldwing owners can share their knowledge with others who have the same issues or problems. An interesting and eye opening thread was started some time ago with asking the question “GWRRA ?”. It was an open question asking for input from others around the world on their thoughts on GWRRA. I was shocked to see all the negative comments and to hear many Goldwing owners out there do not want anything to do with GWRRA. This is not a good thing for our organization. Most of the negative comments were around Chapters not welcoming in new members with open arms, Chapter members in tight groups or cliques shunning others and not being friendly with all members in the Chapter. Some Chapters even give off the negative vibe that if you don’t have the latest and greatest GL1800, you are a nobody, 1100, 1200, 1500 owners not welcome. I can’t understand how this is happening out there. Some are down on GWRRA for being too commercial and only doing it for the money. Some don’t like how expensive it is to belong with all the dinner socials, gatherings with meals involved, and fundraisers like 50/50. Those on a tight budget can’t afford to eat out at restaurants all the time. It’s time to look within our Chapter, and make sure we are not doing anything to keep new people from feeling welcome and wanting to join our fun group. We try hard in our Chapter to have many fun activities that we can participate in. It is our choice which of these activities we can fit into our time schedules. We can pick and choose when to participate. As leaders of the Chapter we encourage you to come out and join us when we have Chapter Rides, Socials, and Gatherings. The more of us that choose to join us at these activities the more fun everyone has. We welcome all, and do not look down on or shun others with different types of bikes or vintages. Remember, GWRRA is now open to all types of bikes, we need to remember that when we talk to others about our Chapter.

Happy Riding to you all.

Jeff & Cindy Duffield

May is Motorcycle Awareness Month

From the Chapter Educator:

May Newsletter – Visibility – The month of May is MOTORCYCLE AWARENESS month BECOME VISIBLE for your survival!

According to Allstate Insurance Company’s latest statistics, three motorcyclists die at intersections every day. According to Tech Transportation Institute, 80% of crashes involve some form of driver inattention within three seconds before the event. Five seconds is the average time a driver’s eyes are off the road while texting and at 55 MPH the vehicle travels the length of a football field while the driver is virtually blindfolded. YIKES!

Add a flashing headlight to your arsenal of weapons used to enhance your visibility. A flashing headlight is a small investment if the headlight’s flashing gets the attention of a distracted driver coming at you. If that “other” driver pulls out in front of you from a side roadway or that “other” driver performs the dreadful and deadly left hand turn in front of you, it maybe because they did not SEE you. Modulating headlights are legal in all 50 states by Federal Standard 49 CFR Part 571.108 and Executive Order 12866. Canada, in all of their Provinces, has their own laws regarding modulating headlights similar to the United States Modulating Headlight laws – see Canadian Motor Vehicle Standard # 108. The modulating headlight will get you noticed at the intersection and on the open roadway. If a flashing headlight is not a part of all your defense weapons, ensure that your headlight is on and that you are using your HIGH-BEAM during day-light hours, the running lights are all working, and your accent lights are functional. Add driving lights to your frontend to make a head-on triangle of lighting similar to the lighting of a modern day freight train that will enhance the visibility to the “other” driver. Ensure that your taillights are in working order. Do not forget about using your directional signals and to cancel them out AFTER your turn is complete.

In addition, the wearing high visibility vests for both rider and co-rider certainly will add visibility. Reflective or fluorescent gear increases conspicuity by 37%. The newest reflective technology called RETRO-REFLECTIVE materials will make you stand out regardless the weather or as the darkness attempts to hide you.

Wear brightly colored clothes and helmets. Choose the color of WHITE for your helmet as it is considered the most visible color according to many safety studies. White helmets are 24% more visible than black helmets. Ever notice what color helmet our motorcycle law enforcement folks wear? Add reflective tape to your helmet and jacket allowing you to be noticed while enjoying those evening rides. Wear bright accent colors for your cloths, gloves, motorcycles, and helmets. All of these suggestions are helpful additions to becoming visible to that other driver by separating you from the motorcycle. Your high visibility effort will “humanize” you and make you identifiable not just as another machine on the road but an actual “human” riding the machine.

As a side note, consider a WHITE helmet as your next helmet investment. Take notice the next time you see a group of motorcyclists heading down the road. Notice what color helmet is standing out among all the other motorcycle helmet colors. Notice how the WHITE helmet separates the driver from the motorcycle. Notice the WHITE helmet contrast (visible at 24% greater than a black helmet) to the black road or dark pavement in the background. Notice the WHITE helmet through the green foliage and trees. Notice the WHITE helmet is still seen through the gray building’s background, busy signals, cluttered traffic signs, multiple advertisement bill and reader boards, or dark bus stop shelters.

Consideration to wearing a white helmet, to some riders it may not be entirely “COOL” to wear a WHITE helmet. It is a proven fact regarding the wearing the color WHITE, that WHITE is “COOLER” because the color WHITE reflects heat from the sun. Have you ever ridden in the southwestern United States during the summertime desperately wishing for a reprieve from the intense heat? A recent study with “like” helmet design helmets were placed in direct sunlight set on asphalt pavement. The results of the test showing a black helmet with an outside temperature of 300+ degrees and inside temperature of 200+ degrees where a similar white helmet had an outside temperature of 175+ degrees and inside temperature of 110+ degrees. From these numbers it is obvious the WHITE helmet is physically cooler on the inside using its reflective WHITE properties against the sun. Keep in mind that anything that keeps you “COOL” in desert riding is a good thing.

Other than adding lights, vests, clothing, and a WHITE helmet as part of your arsenal of defensive weapons, there is still more that you can do:

1) The lane position of your motorcycle is KEY to securing your space on the roadway. Make your position obvious and deliberate. If you always stay in the right side of your lane you may tempt “other” drivers to use your space. The suggestion is to stay in the left portion of your lane while in congested traffic and the unique circumstance dictates the correct positioning you should use

2) While traveling in your lane, make distinct and deliberate movements as you approach the intersection. Movements such as weaving, turning your head, or repeated brake light activity should cause enough attention to get the “other” driver's attention. Letting them know that you are there may avoid a collision. During the oncoming intersection wiggle your handle bars so the attention of the on-coming driver notices your jiggling headlight – just wiggle and jiggle

3) Initiate movements that break-up the slowing down process well before your planned stop. Tap your brake lights several times well ahead of actual stopping while choosing a way out in case the driver behind you does not stop behind you. (Add Vololights – a Brakeless Deceleration Indicator system – a brake light that flashes as you decelerate as in braking or slowing down for a stop - see VOLOLIGHTS.COM or see Parts Unlimited). Remember: watch your rear-view mirrors, keep enough space between you and the vehicle in front of you, keep your right foot on the rear brake, and ready your machine in first gear for a quick escape

4) To make you visible to those other drivers take yourself out-of-the-ordinary traffic doldrums by making out-of-the-ordinary movements to draw attention to you by weaving, braking, turning your head

5) Practice evasive maneuvers in the parking lot over and over until those maneuvers are ingrained in your subconscious formulating your immediate reaction to an event as automatic and subconscious response to that event

6) Motorcycles do not take up a full lane as a car or truck. Motorcycles still have the legal right to use the intersection lane as any other vehicle although your smaller profile does not prevent negligence by the “other” driver. Remember, your license plate does not define the size of the lane space you are entitled to use. Although motorcyclists have the right to a full lane, there is no guarantee that the “other” driver will observe that right, so your safety falls on YOU to be vigilant at the intersection and controlling your lane space

7) Avoid the “other” driver’s BLIND SPOT. Potential INVISIBILITY exists within all vehicles. Being in the other vehicle’s blind spot carries dangerous and deadly warnings. When we find ourselves in that blind spot we find that we are just waiting our turn for that careless (preoccupied or distracted) driver to pull into "our" zone. It is imperative that we get out of that blind spot as quickly as possible before their blindness gets out of our control

8) Yes, the BLIND SPOT situation is in OUR control. It is up to us to take action to move away and out of that blind spot. Heavy traffic, congestion, and busy people are often motivated to get somewhere during their evening commute. Those that are participating in the “rush” to get into that other lane attempting to make a right or left turn quickly because of the traffic is stacked up ahead or behind them. Some drivers also deal with that “not so” courteous driver behind them when that “other” driver refuse to open up the space allowing the “blind” driver to change lanes quickly without checking to see if the lane is clear to do so. Make sure you are able to see the semi- in BOTH your review mirrors before returning to your driving lane as you maybe in the semi-truck driver’s blind spot and cannot see you over their hood

9) The “blind” driver may make a turning mistake or making a late decision requiring a lane change. Maybe that “other” driver just needs YOUR lane to correct their error because of their lack of preparation for a turn. Without total verification the lane is clear, the “blind” driver changes lanes taking your “right” to be there. Perhaps YOU are in their blind spot and they just “don’t see you”. ALWAYS assume that the blind sighted driver does not see anything beyond or within their blind spot nor will they be looking for a motorcycle

10) WARNING: Blind-sighted drivers are not seasonal. Not seeing the motorcycle is especially true during "off season" times when those drivers are not even thinking that a motorcyclist would be on the roadway, let’s say, during the winter months ensuring greater INVISIBILITY of the motorcyclist. It is at this time that the motorcyclist needs to be in FULL alert status granting attention and high concentration for the slightest indication (i.e., turning of a front wheel or the driver moving their head while looking towards their outside mirror coverage). Unfortunately, many vehicles are driven by people that are oblivious to what is around them, distracted for some reason, and will take their lane and our space regardless of our “right” to be there

11) Avoid the other BLIND SPOTS such as behind a delivery truck or semi-truck and out of sight of their rearview mirrors. Avoid blending in with an inanimate object’s shadow and be aware of the things around you that might absorb you having YOU “disappear” right before their eyes. Such objects that you blend in with might be a bus stop shelter, a tree or large bush, a light pole, advertising signs, an elusive phone booth, a box truck or van

Suggestions noted above are attempts to make you aware to be seen and draw attention to you and your presence. You have a “RIGHT” to be there – BE SEEN – BE OBVIOUS, and remember there is no guarantee that the “other” driver will grant you that RIGHT!

One more suggestion towards surviving the intersection:

THINK that YOU are INVISIBLE to the other drivers all the time. RIDE like YOU are INVISIBLE.

Your life may depend on what you do to make yourself VISIBLE.

NEVER-NEVER-NEVER - Count on "eye contact" as a sign that a driver has seen you and that THEY will yield the right of way to YOU. All too often a driver looks right through the motorcyclist and fails to "see" you. How often have we heard the all too common phrase “I did not see them” right after the accident?

Greetings from Chapter Couple

District is coming July will be here before we know it and it will be time to head to Port Townsend for the District Convention. This time Cindy and I will be camping on the fairground site in our Toy Hauler Trailer. With being onsite this year we hope to be more involved with all the goings on. Last year we were in a Motel several miles from the fairgrounds and it was hard to be there for everything. There will be some of the same activities to enjoy and maybe some new ones. I like the light parade and the bike show. We will be organizing a ride to Hurricane Ridge on one of the days, most likely on Friday. Another activity that will be going on is the choosing of a couple for the new District Couple of the Year. Ron and Violet Urquhart have been selected for another District position. They have asked us if we would consider competing for the position of District Couple of the Year. We are not sure yet if this is something we could do at this time. We are still very new to GWRRA and don’t feel we have done enough yet. Plus the time commitment it would take to really do it right. Either way, it will be a fun time and we are looking forward to a lot of our Chapter members being there to have fun with us. Reno Rendezvous has been cancelled for this year. There were several of us planning on going but due to Wing Ding being so close in Billings, the numbers did not show up to commit to going. It will be back in 2017 and will be the place to go to as long as Wing Ding is on the East Coast or out of our range to go. Wing Ding is coming, and we are going. Who else wants to join us? We are leaving Monday August 29th and stopping in Haugan for our half way overnight stop. Tuesday we will finish the drive to Billings. The events at Billings are yet to be known. Riding the Beartooth Hwy to Yellowstone is on the list of must do’s. Other things we will figure out when we are there. We will depart for Home on Sunday the 4th of September and camp again in Haugan at the Lincoln’s 50,000 Silver Dollar Motel and Camp ground. We are excited about going to our first Wing Ding. Join us if you can.

Motorist Awareness Coordinator LOOK AT ME – I’M A MULTI-TASKER It’s amazing at how many things we can do all at once. Although it appears we are doing several actions at the same time we, just like computers, are managing functions in our brain at such a high rate of speed that it gives that appearance.

As we are driving we have so many “natural” actions occurring at the same time. Let’s review some of them:

1. Feeling – is the temperature in the vehicle too warm or cold? Do we feel perspiration on our skin? 2. Hearing – are we listening to the radio or other conversations around us? Can we hear any emergency sirens outside that should need immediate attention? 3. Seeing – statistics state that about 90% of driving is visual. Are we focusing on the road or other eye- catching scenes? 4. Touch – is the steering wheel vibrating from a flat tire, running over road “turtles” or rumble-strips as we wander from our lane? 5. Smell – is the radiator overheating and coolant is cooking on the engine? Do we have infants in the back that might need some immediate attention?

These actions seem to be natural. Our brain appears to be able to accommodate their demands – but then we add some other distracting actions to our list. We want to read some literature, shave, apply makeup, eat, drink, etc. Those were some of the old distractions, but now we have new electronic items that take up a spot in our brain. GPS, cell phones, MP3 players, i-pads, i-pods, i-phones, etc. add to the list.

No wonder we are in over-load while driving and we miss some activity around us. Like stopping at stop signs, running red lights, speeding, lane changes without checking mirrors or looking over our shoulders, etc. We incorporate so many things that take our mind off the safe operation of our vehicle and awareness of who and what is around us.

Let’s try to limit our demands on multi-tasking in order to be aware of our driving habits and of those around us.

Vic Parr Motorist Awareness Coordinator

Due to conflicting activities’ our scheduled ride was canceled for April FROM THE CHAPTER TECHNICAL ADVISOR:

Hello fellow Gold Wing riders....

It's been a busy month for yours truly.

It all started in Iowa almost 58 years ago. I don't know where the hell that was going. hm.

So last month I had an article on the Vessel screwdriver and bits. I used them today and must say that the phillips head will work but, these fit the screw head better. Money well spent.

So, I was at Walmart and just looking at the oil and related products. I came across a tube that screwed onto a gallon or quart oil jug and used to fill oil or gear oil. It has a on-off valve so you can turn it on or off, It's actually used for transmission fluid but works quite nice for oil too. I've used it several times and think that I need to get one for the shop. It makes filling oil so much easier.

The workshop is coming up on the 30th and just remember to bring jugs for oil and anti-freeze.

Let me know if you want help on anything.

FROM THE CHAPTER SECRETARY GWRRA Chapter "V" April 7th 2016 Meeting was called to order by Director Joe Diambri @ 7:00 P.M. Introductions of Staff were made as there were visitors were present Introductions were made of visitors Carl & Cathy Leon after which they made a presentation on Wings Washington. Past and present functions were gone over and discussed. Joe thanked members for volunteering at the Federal Way rest stop and making it a successful event. Big thanks to Ken and Marion Harter who work “above and beyond the call of duty” by doing the setting up and closing. Also thanks to John, Ken and Dennis for helping the Harters. Point was made that we were going to add Jeff Duffield to the signature access of checks. The Chapter Director feels the need to have a third backup signature authority. Chapter Educator John Doughty gave a presentation on safety items of helmets, vests, and of course tires! Vic Parr also gave a Motorist Awareness presentation. Ken and Marian Harter were unable to attend so we didn’t have a marble game. Jeff Duffield ran the 50/50 drawing, giving out 5 door prizes and the 36 dollar money prize went to Bill Holt. Joe Diambri had his name draw for colors and had his green on so won $5.00. Patti Diambri found her number in the newsletter so she won $10.00 for finding that. Jan Ljunggren was presented the free ice cream for next month. Jeff Duffield capped off the evening with a show and tell of items in the Chapter store including lights and an assortment of chapter color shirts. Meeting was adjourned at 8:10. Jan Ljunggren, Secretary

FROM THE CHAPTER NEWSLETTER EDITORS

The hidden number for April was Patti’s. She was present and collected $10.00 reward for finding her number. I wasn’t present at the meeting so I don’t know how quick or how long it took her to find her number. When you’re just looking for the number, it can be rather difficult, but perseverance pays off, if and when you find your number its good for a $10.00 dinner refund at our current meeting, honored before 50/50 drawings. We’ve had some 80 degree weather in the past few days which is un-seasonal and I would like to remind you the chance of heat exhaustion and how it can impede your riding. The best defense is to drink lots of water. You should always carry extra water bottles when the temperature starts to rise. Be careful out there.

“Natchitoches” A husband and wife were driving through . As they approached Natchitoches, they started arguing about the pronunciation of the town. They argued back and forth, then they stopped for lunch. At the counter, the husband asked the blonde waitress, “Before we order, could you please settle an argument for us? Would you please pronounce where we are very slowly?” She leaned over the counter and said, “Burrr-gerrr Kiiing.”
