2024 Revving Up for an Exciting New Year with AWMEC

First off, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each one of you for being a pivotal part of our club’s vibrant spirit. Your enthusiasm, camaraderie, and passion for the open road truly define what makes our motorcycle club special. Just by attending our events, we are able to help each other and enjoy all things motorcycles.

In the upcoming months, we’ve lined up some incredible events and rides that promise to fuel our love for motorcycles and strengthen the bonds we share. Your active participation is what adds the spark to these events, making them truly memorable. So, let’s rev those engines and make our presence felt at every turn!

( IMPORTANT) The latest ride calendar, spanning all the way to May, is now available on our website. A massive congratulations to Stewie and the Ride Committee for their hard work in making this happen. When you see them next, please express your gratitude—it’s a time-consuming task, and they truly deserve our appreciation.

( IMPORTANT) Also a reminder that we greatly value and need your input as we must close off our recent survey. The survey will be the catalyst to this years upcoming events and rallies. To date we have only had 34 people fill in the survey. These 34 responses out of our 240 members will have their voices heard on what their thoughts are about how the next round of events and rallies will be put together. Don’t miss out on this opportunity – have your voice heard.

I urge you to have-a-go at the survey so that we may include your voice. https://forms.gle/nhaQWwdfmDVaUmbFA

Now, onto a lighter note! They say a good joke kickstarts the year with laughter, so here it goes: Why did the motorcycle go to sleep? Because it was two-tired from all the wheelies!  – Let’s ensure our bikes stay upright, unlike that poor joke!

On a serious note, safety is paramount. As we embark on new adventures, let’s prioritize safety measures to ensure each ride is a joyous one. Here are a few important tips to keep in mind:

1- Gear Up: Always wear proper safety gear – helmet, gloves, boots, and protective clothing.

2- Maintenance Matters: Regularly maintain your bike to ensure it’s in top-notch condition.

3- Ride Responsibly: Respect traffic laws and ride defensively, being aware of your surroundings.

4- Group Riding Etiquette: Follow group riding guidelines for a safer and more enjoyable experience.

5- Remember, your safety is non-negotiable, and let’s look out for one another on the road.

Let’s make this New Year a celebration of thrilling rides, camaraderie, and unforgettable memories! Together, we’ll make every twist and turn an adventure worth cherishing.

Here’s to a year filled with the wind in our hair, the roar of engines, and the joy of riding together. Cheers to an incredible year ahead!

Ride safe and ride on!
