THE STORY OF ‘PMS’

IT’S BEEN ALMOST THREE YEARS AGO WHEN I STARTED THIS JOURNEY. BEFORE THAT I COULD BE FOUND AT A PLACE CALLED ‘FATBOYS’. ALL THAT HARD WORK WAS STOLEN FROM ME BY A VERY UNSCRUPLIOUS PERSON. A COUPLE OF YEARS LATER ON A POKER RUN I WAS TALKING WITH A BIKER WE ALL KNOW, GHOST, AND I SAID WHAT IF THERE WAS A PLACE THAT WAS DEDICATED TO BIKERS, THAT YOU HAD TO BE A PART OF, BE A MEMBER OF.

SO THE SEED WAS PLANTED. AND IT GREW. A LOT OF HARD WORKING GOOD PEOPLE PUT A TON OF ENERGY, LOVE, SWEAT AND AT TIMES TEARS INTO GETTING THE ORGANIZATION WHERE IT IS TODAY.

YOU ALL KNOW WHAT I DO FOR A LIVING, NO NEED TO TALK ABOUT THAT, BUT I HAD TO PUT MY FAITH AND TRUST INTO PEOPLE TO MAKE KEEP THINGS GOING WHILE I WAS OUT TO SEA.

WELL PEOPLE BEING PEOPLE AND THE OLD ADAGE “YOU CAN’T PLEASE ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME” PEOPLE GOT THEIR HURT FEELINGS AND THEY STOPPED BEING A PART OF THE GROUP AND STOPPED COMING TO THE CLUB.

FOR THAT I AM TRULY SORRY. BUT THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ONE TRIES TO BE IN 2 PLACES AT ONCE. IF I COULD CHANGE ALL THAT I WOULD.

THE 20^TH OF JULY 2010 WAS A HORRIBLE DAY. WE ALL WILL NEVER FORGET KARL AND WHAT HE MEANT TO ALL OF US. THAT TRAGIC EVENT HAS DEEPLY AFFECTED ME AND I’M SURE A LOT OF OTHERS.

SO WHAT’S THE FUTURE OF PMS? I’M GOING TO BE RETIRING IN 2011. THAT IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER. I’M ENGAGED TO THE MOST WONDERFUL LADY I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE AND SOON WE WILL BE MARRIED. (NO DATE SET YET)

MY FRIENDS, THE FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS. WE HAVE A WONDERFUL PLACE TO GO TO. THE CLUB NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT. I CAN’T DO THIS ALONE. WE ALL NEED EACH OTHER. IT’S BEEN SAID TIME AND TIME AGAIN WE ARE FAMILY. SO WITH THAT I WILL CLOSE, I LOVE YA’ALL.
