From the CD
July
2016
Hello again Chapter M! It is officially summertime in Texas and we
all know what that means……..HOT, HOTTER, HOTTEST!!! We will
start to see more morning and evening rides on the calendar rather than
during the middle of the scorching day rides and that is a GOOD thing.
Just a quick reminder to stay hydrated and use whatever you have to
stay cool during the time that you are riding. Sun screen is also really important. Don't leave home without it! This time of year is difficult for me
to get motivated to ride much. Most of my riding takes place in the mornings or evenings as the sun is going down and I am sure many of you feel
the same way. Thank goodness for cooler racks filled with ice, bottled
water and cool vests. They do make the heat “tolerable”.
The chapter pool party is just around the corner on July 9th. Everyone
is invited and hope to see everyone there. Have you RSVP'd yet? Details
are on the calendar. You have already received your invitation via email.
This is one heck of a good time every year, so don’t miss out on the fun.
I think that our ride coordinators are busy planning a 3-4 day ride to
Arkansas to visit the Talimena National Scenic Byway. Stay tuned for
details about it to take place sometime late September or early October.
We are in the planning stages for our annual fund raiser poker run in October now known as the “Luck of the Draw Ride”.
We also have our annual after Thanksgiving Day weekend ride to plan.
This is always a fun trip and one that a lot of our members look forward
to every year.
There is a lot going on between now and the end of the year so get
involved, lead a ride, participate and everyone have a good time……after
all that is what it is all about, having FUN!!!!!
Until next month,
Ride COOL and Ride SAFE

Bug Run 2016
We met at Cardiology Partners of Mansfield at
around 18:30 for our Bug Run. This time, the ride was
about 74 miles in the hot Texas weather. This, however, did not bother Blanca as she can now 'turn on
the AC' while riding during the summer months. One
word - VESKIMO!
Participants: Sherry & Fred Myers, Dee & Don
Peacock, Harry Allen, Dalinda & Jeff Seguin, Marvin
Stewart, Ken Peterson, Jack (Mike) Daniels, Carolyn
& Dennis Martini, Terri & Jim Culver, Blanca & Tom
Lerch.
We did stop for a brief break at the Exxon Station in
Cresson on 171.
We continued on 171 to 917 in Godley, left on 917
(bugs were active here) all the way to DQ in Mansfield. Terri, Jim, Jack and Harry left the competition
before we made it to our final destination. After a very
close count (Blanca & Tom had 3 hits), Dalinda and
Jeff took the prize with 4 hits.
BTW, we went to DQ shortly before closing. This
is the second time that they had a special without
even knowing it. Either the computer or the staff got
so mixed up that some of us got twice the order. Of
course, who can say no to that!
We drove to Steven's Garden & Grill in Mansfield
for some good dinner. Ginny & David Topley joined
us there; Kathy and Steve Tackel met us there as well
and did participate in the ride.
After dinner, we went on to the bug run with eight
(8) bikes and three trikes. 157 to 1187, left on 1187 to
377, 377 to 171, left on 171. During this time, we saw
a beautiful sunset. AND - it cooled off making this a
really nice evening ride.
T-CARE – Training
Last month I introduced T-CARE (Training, Conditioning, Attitude, Risks & Expectations). This month
I’m going to start the series by talking about training
and its different forms.
When you start a new job, initial training is usually given either formally in a classroom setting or
informally by a supervisor who watches and offers
instructions and critiques. They provide directions
on how the work should be performed (which is not
always the easiest way) drawing on experience for the
finer points. Afterward, you try to imitate the newly
acquired skills by performing them, usually over and
over until they become second nature.
I’m sure more than a few of you know where I’m
going with this. Riding a motorcycle has the same
basic learning steps of training and practice. You may
have started out in a formal classroom going through
one of the MSF’s Beginning Riders courses, or if you
started like I did, through a friend that already knew
how to ride. The major difference being the MSF
instructors don’t laugh at you when you do something
stupid. Some of you may have been brave enough to
just throw your leg over and take off. I can’t imagine
the scrapes and bruises encountered while learning to
steer and brake properly. Since you are reading this,
it’s safe to assume that we all made it out alive. How
many people do you know that didn’t, because of rider
mistakes that could have been avoided, if only they
had proper training in braking, avoidance and how to
handle the motorcycle better?
Everyone should strive to go through some sort of
training as often as possible. Training doesn’t have
to be the formal MSF or GWRRA class. It can be as
simple as having an experienced friend watch while
you perform some drills. The most important thing is
to have someone that is able to 1) spot areas that could
be improved, 2) communicate these to you and 3) offer the correct solution on how to improve. Whether
formal or informal, “training” is the first step. It’s up
to you to practice, which is a form of training in itself.
As always, let me know if you would like more information on training courses or setting up a Parking Lot
Practice Day.

New product of the month
(by Chris Schoenthal)
While not necessarily a new product, with summer upon us, a cooling vest is a great way to extend our riding time. There are a lot of Goldwings with heated seats and grips, but none with cooling accessories that are
desperately needed here in Texas. Some of you already own and use them, but for others that are thinking about
getting one, here is a basic overview on the two different types.
Active cooling – Active cooling vests and systems require power (electricity or battery) to operate. They continually provide maximum cooling, many lowering the body’s core temperature. These tend to be more expensive
systems and generally start around $350 and can run well into the four figures.
Active Cooling Vests ($350-$2,000)
Most active vests work by recirculating chilled fluid through the vest. The vest, which may include a cap,
requires a separate cooling unit--a pump to recirculate the fluid and a cooler to hold the ice that chills the fluid-and a power source. Typically these vests run off either A/C or battery power (say D cells or the motorcycle
battery). The vests themselves range greatly in weight, from as little as 2 lbs to 10 lbs and heavier.
Examples: Cool Shirt Systems & Veskimo Hydration Backpacks
ProCon
+ Maximum cooling benefit
- Requires power/fluid to operate
+ Best of any vest type at dropping core body temperature - Vest complexity ups price significantly
+ Effectiveness proven in studies
Passive cooling – Passive vests have no working components, but their cooling power is short-term (30 minutes
to 4 hours). While they have limited effectiveness in lowering the core body temperature, passive vests do provide a degree of heat relief. These are the most affordable types of vests, and range in price from $30-$500).
Passive Phase Change Cooling Vests ($100-$400)
Unlike ice packs, which chill to below freezing, phase change packs maintain much higher temperatures. These
phase-change packs often contain liquids (typically nontoxic oils and fats) that solidify (like wax) typically
between 55 to 65 degrees and reliably provide cooling power for as long as 4 hours. Some vests, like those from
First Technology International, rely solely on absorbing heat and require no refrigeration. Although these vests
don't "feel" as cold as ice or gel vests, they are working. Due to the higher temps, these vests are comfortable
worn directly against the skin. Phase change packs can be recharged in the refrigerator, freezer, in ice water, or
even at room temperature. Typical weight: 3-5 lbs.
Examples: Glacier Tek, First Line Technology, TechNiche International & Polar Products
ProCon
+ Recharges quickly, in as little as 5 minutes - Can be heavy
+ No condensation on packs
- Might not "feel" cold
+ Long-lasting cooling capacity
Passive Gel Pack Cooling Vests ($150-$300)
These vests use cooling sheets that activate when soaked in water and plump when agitated. The user then
freezes these sheets, which are dropped into the garment prior to wearing. These vests provide reliable cooling
and tend to be lighter in weight than ice or phase change vests. The gel also does not freeze as coldly as ice, so
safety is not a concern. Expect about three hours of cooling per charge.
Examples: Stacool Vest & Coolture
ProCon
+ Comfortable, consistent cooling power, not too cold
- Gel packs feel a bit slimy in the first few freeze cycles
+ Replacement gel packs are inexpensive
- Condensation is common
- Must have access to a freezer to fully recharge
Passive Embedded Gel Cooling Vests ($75-$200)
These vests are lined with hydrogel crystals that activate when soaked in water. After the gel ribs plump fully,
the vests are towel dried (or put in the spin cycle of your washer) to remove excess water. They are then folded,
placed in a plastic bag, and frozen. When removing the vest from the freezer, vests tend to be icy and likely will
need some coaxing to fully open. They are among the lightest cooling vests available (second only to evaporative) but have less endurance than phase change, gel inserts, and ice, lasting between 30 minutes to a couple of
hours in optimum conditions. Also note that these vests need to be stored cool (in the freezer or fridge) in order
for the gel ribs to remain plump or else the user will have to repeat the initial activation process detailed above.
The IZI BodyCooler functions is a true hybrid vest, with both hydogel and evaporative cooling.
Examples: IZI BodyCooling, Arctic Heat & Polar Products
ProCon
+ Can be extremely lightweight
- Limited cooling capacity, no more than 2 hours when frozen
+ Packs down small when uncharged
- Entire vest must be chilled; takes up room in freezer
- Vest can be damp, less practical for day-to-day use
Passive Ice Pack Cooling Vests ($100-$300)
These vests are among the most popular and basic in design and tend to provide the most theoretical cooling
power among passive vests (which scientific research suggests is not always a positive), with cooling that can
reliably last for several hours. The user pre-freezes the ice packs, which are then dropped into pockets on the
garment prior to wearing. But tests have shown that many of these vests can have too much cooling if properly
frozen--on par with therapeutic icing for injuries, which should be done for no more than 20 minutes--and in
theory could cause frostbite if worn with a single T-shirt.
Examples: SteeleVest & Polar Products
ProCon
+ Affordable
- Cooling packs often too cold
+ Maintains cooling charge longer than many vests
- Typically heavier than other passive vests
- Must have access to a freezer to fully recharge
Passive Evaporative Cooling Vests ($30-$80)
Just soak the vest in cool water, then towel or wring dry, and you are ready to go. You’ll likely get a little
damp, but that’s to be expected as these vests are essentially portable evaporative coolers that chill the human
body. To be effective, the vest should only be worn in low humidity (arid/desert) environments. These are the
most affordable passive vests but also typically the least effective.
Examples: TechNiche International, Silver Eagle Outfitters & Polar Products
ProCon
+ Most affordable style of passive vests
- Not effective in humid environments
+ Quite lightweight
- Limited cooling capacity
+ Easy to recharge (just add water)
- Vest is damp, could breed bacteria if stored incor
rectly
Of course there are other manufacturers than those I’ve listed, but the primary concern is keeping cool and riding safe.
GWRRA Levels Program
Congratulations!

Ride to Granbury & Glen Rose
by Chris Schoenthal
It had been raining all week and Granbury had been
flooded for most of it. Early on a dreary Saturday, June
4th the rain had stopped, and 5 brave souls showed up
at Cardiology Partners for the trek. After a short wait
to ensure that we didn’t miss anyone that might just
be running late, we headed out 1187 and then down
377 and into Granbury. I had invited Chapter P to ride
with us between Granbury and Glen Rose and was
met at the Granbury Square by 3 of their members.
By the time we had reached the Square, the skies were
just mostly cloudy. Traveling through the County
Roads around the Dinosaur Park and then Fossil Rim
Wildlife Center, the clouds parted and the ride became extremely nice. The lunch was at Hammond’s
BBQ (delicious!), where Larry Jennings met us. The
ride toward home was less spectacular, as Chapter P
headed home and others parted ways, off to enjoy the
day elsewhere.
Attendees included:
Chris & Lynn Schoenthal (led)
David & Laura Adams
Randy Hawes & grandson Chance

Ridin’ the Rockies!
by Laura Adams
School ended the first week in June, so David and
I loaded up the Valkyrie and headed for the hills! I
prefer to travel in the truck to our destination, then
seek out rides to enjoy. Our resource? www.motorcycleroads.com. Just punch in the state and watch a
map populate rides that include reviews. In Cheyenne,
Wyoming we took a short spin on the Happy Jack
Road through Medicine Bow National Forest. It was
a short 74 mile ride, beautiful scenery and herds of
antelope grazing peacefully.
After visiting with family our first evening in Salt
Lake City, Utah, we set out the next day with clouds in
the sky. We cruised through Big Cottonwood Canyon
in the Wasatch range of the Rocky Mountains, getting
colder as we climbed in altitude. So refreshing, especially knowing the heat we’d left behind! Breakfast
at the Silver Fork Lodge was a delight. Homemade
pancakes, fresh fruit and hot coffee served in a quaint
log cabin style dining room with fresh cut mountain
wildflowers on the tables.
Back on the bike we rode alongside Big Cottonwood
Creek, enjoying the crisp air and the bubbling sound
of the water rushing along with us. The scent of the
pines and wildflowers was intoxicating. Silvery aspen
trees added a shimmer of light to the incredible rock
formations. As rain clouds were close on our tail, we
climbed higher until we emerged into a forest with
snow all over the ground. The view was stunning,
truly beyond description.
We rode through Guardsman’s Pass, through Pine
Canyon, then descended into the Heber Valley and
stopped at a little dairy where they sold artisan cheeses. David and I relaxed for quite a while on the creamery porch, resplendent with baskets of hanging flowers, watching the cows, and planning where to go next.
We chose a second route and rode from Heber to
Hannah & the Wolf Creek Pass Loop, 122 miles. The
valley was warm and had striking desert landscaping.
We crossed the Strawberry Reservoir, then rode into
Hannah.
There we stopped at a little cafe known for serving
bikers. We ate, chatted with folks, and waited out the
rain that had caught up with us. We chose a route back
that maneuvered through the rain as much as possible.
One of the cafe owners gave us each commercial sized
trash bags in lieu of rain gear, and we set off, racing
the rain. Unfortunately, our last 90 minutes was spent
riding in the rain, and a mighty chilly rain at that!
David asked me a few times if I needed to stop and get
shelter, I said “Hell no, let’s push on”!
Our last little ride was in Cortez, Colorado. A woman at the hotel asked us where we were headed “in
this heat”! Really? I told her I was from North Texas
and this was like heaven. We took a short ride west
through part of the Canyons of the Ancients National
Monument. Unfortunately, I had fallen and cracked
a rib at the hotel earlier. Tiring out more quickly, I
made David turn around before we could complete the
route. However, what we saw was gorgeous.
Because we were toting my parents out to see family, we were constrained by everyone else’s schedules
and didn’t get to explore to the extent we wanted to.
But now that we’ve had a taste of riding in the Rocky
Mountains, we will be back!
- Laura
bridges and found our way to the Jalapeño Tree where
tables were ready and waiting for our arrival. We
were happy to see Chris Schoenthal’s lovely wife,
Lynn with her sister Jodi McMann.
Ride to Gun Barrel City
Leaving Mansfield at 0900, 9 bikes, all single riders, including Beth on her own ride, and one cage
carrying our very own Cindy Burt headed out.
To beat the heat, we headed down 287, to 45 South
to Corsicana & exited to Route 31. After a brief stop
at the Mobile station, we continued east on 31
to Malikoff. We were treated by mother nature with
a pond full of lili pads perfectly placed and in full
bloom.
We turned North on 198 greeted by tall trees, curvy
roads and the need to dodge a few road kill. Some
were successful at this, some were not!!
Of course no ride would be complete without an official U-turn; soon we were back on our way. We
crossed over Cedar Creek Reservoir via several
Others who joined us were Carl Schiflette, Chris
Schoenthal, Cyndi Burt, Jim Culver, our Gunner,
Randy Hawes, Mike Fuller, David Adams, Critt Coburn and
Beth and I. After an enjoyable lunch, we headed out
and followed 85 to 1182 which took us straight to
45N. A brief ride on 45, then followed the 287 to Ft.
Worth Exit.
By this time, the heat was on and we “Gun Barreled”
it home!

Memory Revisited
Recently our daughter contacted us about doing
something on Father's Day. She always makes sure
she remembers us on our special days. I suggested
she do something with just her father rather than both
of us, as he wasn't with us when we celebrated Mother's Day. In the past she had answered one of those
lists of questions where one of them was a favorite
childhood memory on facebook, and Jim happened to
read it. When our daughter was very young Jim took
her for a ride on one of our past wings and they rode
to Whitney. That was her favorite memory. He wasn't
aware of that.
So on Father's Day, Jim and Angela recreated the
memory and rode to Whitney, in spite of the heat, to
check out how high the water was after all the rains
we've been dealing with. As they left I took pictures,
and video, to remember the day. And as they were out
checking out the different spots they were able to get
to, I got pictures and videos back from both of them of
what they saw. You may have seen some pictures on
facebook that were posted.
That was another precious memory to treasure. We
don't get to spend a lot of time with her, and currently
she plans to move out of state next summer to pursue
her goals, so one enjoys the time one has.
We have members who move away from us, but we
treasure the time we have with them, too. That's what
family does.
