JULY 2020 | ThunderRoadsFlorida.com | 5 Loss of a Great Man Ron Martin By Lulu The biking world is small. I know people from Sturgis to L.A., even France just because of spending time on two wheels. So, it is a surprise that Ron Martin, a fellow publisher, and I have never crossed paths that I know of. I was saddened to hear that on May 21st of 2020 he died suddenly of complications of diabetes. Dear friends of mine LOVED Ron, publisher of Ron Martin’s Souvenir Pocket Guide for the past 25 years. Sherry Fletcher and Willie from Tropical Tattoo have always told stories of Ron and his love of fellow bikers. I hear he was proud of his time in the Navy where he spent time on both the USS Midway and the USS Kitty Hawk. Ron is known for being a patriotic American. His love of the biking world is only surpassed by his love for his family. Ron was a good father to Ronnie and Robin and a loving son to his mom Barbara. His family member Fuzzy is surely missing him…his furry pet child! Another trait that I heard rumors of about Ron is a keen sense of humor and I was told once when a client who had a large dog did him dirty… Ron put a pile of dog doo on the map at the spot where that bar would have been on Main Street. When I heard that I often wished I had that amount of gonads!!! As Ron would say “Ya Baby!” To those of you missing and aching for Ron’s presence here on Earth all I can say is you were lucky to share sands of time with this man, and live a good life so you will see him again on the highways of the stars!

6 | ThunderRoadsFlorida.com | JULY 2020 JULY 2020 | ThunderRoadsFlorida.com | 7 PONY TALES By LuLu

I am going to rant about the rioting and looting. Don’t call it peaceful protest! Sit-ins were peaceful protests. The first person to stand and yell in a cop’s face, spit on them, throw pre-staged bricks and rocks at them, destroy vehicles, burn buildings, steal merchandise was the end of ANY peaceful protest! My nephew is a GOOD SWAT cop in rioting Louisville, Kentucky. I am fearful for him. I understand daily the fear blacks claim to feel for family members. The thug they are marching to honor has a criminal background that included burglary while holding a gun to a pregnant woman’s belly. He still didn’t deserve to be knelt on by a rogue cop until he couldn’t breathe, while his “bad apples” just stood there. But this isn’t the days of the Old Testament…it isn’t an eye for an eye in the U.S.A. and even if it was, as I am writing this, 7 cops have been shot, at least 2 have died, one of them a black cop…do Black Cops Lives not matter? Who the hell are these fools marching and giving cover to looters? Minority business owners still reeling from the coronavirus shut down now have broken windows, missing inventory and in at least one case have lost their lives in the crossfire. Let alone the total cost to our government that is trying to keep people fed while having less income tax to finance it all. I have seen on T.V. a black man in the street begging the looters to stop and to leave his business alone that he had worked his entire life for! If these rioters and protestors think this helps us feel better about their race…they are wrong! All this has done for me is make me reup my NRA membership and want TJ to buy more ammo. I would never sit idly by while people destroy our property over a murder that happened in a city across the country by people I don’t know. I was outraged by the video. I felt the need to address the police brutality on this man. He shouldn’t have died that day. But our country isn’t the problem! Our police across this country are no more the problem, than a bad surgeon who causes the death of a patient makes all doctors the problem. DEFEND THE POLICE! We should be the Red, White, and Blue line standing between the protestors and our police for God’s sake. If the police quit all we will have is THUGS and our GUNS. Help the small businesses that have been so hurt by the coronavirus shut down, be kind to all races despite the insanity and pray for this country.

8 | ThunderRoadsFlorida.com | JULY 2020 BARS R ESSENTIAL

By Lulu Since mid-March, bars that do not serve food have been closed…bar owners and staff have held their breath with each passing week hoping for a reprieve by Governor Ron DeSantis. Bills mounting, staff without pay, and until June 3rd no word out of Tallahassee. It was beginning to seem like Ron had forgotten about the bars while restaurants were serving alcohol to the masses and gyms were allowing members to resume their normal lives. I wrote to Ron myself saying I would rather sit on a barstool next to people who I considered to be more like family than just friends, than pass strangers in the grocery store! So, Patty Miracle and Frank Scott from the Daytona Beach radio station Rock of Daytona organized a protest ride mid-May to raise awareness that Bars R Essential too! The livelihood of many including the 55,000 in Florida!!! Thankfully today the Governor announced on June 5th the bars can open at 50% occupancy as we move into Phase II. So please get out and visit our ad clients… tip generously…realize what a strain emotionally and financially this has been to our friends in the business for much longer than the rest of us.

JULY 2020 | ThunderRoadsFlorida.com | 9 10 | ThunderRoadsFlorida.com | JULY 2020 Veterans Ride By Lulu Despite the corona virus, motorcyclists met up at The Dog House in Port Orange and took the roadways to remember veterans and their sacrifices. Stops included Fox Head in Osteen, The Inn Between on a beautiful piece of tree covered property in Deland and OB’s in Deland. They then headed back to The Dog House for an after party. It was a great turn out for veterans with over a hundred bikes and a beautiful day to be riding.

We’d been the people digitally in the comfort of their always traveling. Equipment maintenance, own homes. We had a bike show, a bikini contest, a wet t-shirt contest and several bands played all set up from their garages; we just clicked a button and put them on air when it was their time to be a part of the show. We even had everyone’s favorite rally bartenders telling us what it’s like to be a rally performer and making drinks to boot. BG: Yeah, the sights and sounds were awesome I’m glad you weren’t able to re- create the smells!! (laughter) TR: That is a really cool idea how was it received? CC: It was a huge success- so much to the point that we’ve added a weekly virtual bike BUILT BY night every Thursday where we follow the same model; we have live entertainment, garage tours from the viewers who want to join in and we even have a cooking with Tea segment with Billy. People can check it out on our Facebook page or our YouTube channel. TR: Really? What’s that about? BG: I enjoy cooking and baking because I was a cook in the Navy, so I’ve been doing more of it now that I’m home. We have some cool recipes for Twisted Tea, so I figured what the hell they do it on the Today Show right??!! TR: Now tell us about the Twisted Tea Sweepstakes Bike

In 2017 with Cycle Source acting as the general contractor so to speak, we got together with several builders to build a one of a kind custom build which was the Tea Chopper. It really set the stage for what was to come because the bike was unbelievable. In 2017 we did a flat track called the Tea Tracker, in 2019 we did a chollos inspired low rider called the Tea Low Rider They looked tough kinda like Mack and this year’s bike is a bobber style bar truck or a bulldozer. hopper kinda like an Exile because I’ve TR: Is that how you came up with the always like that style. name Tea-Dozer?
