March 2017 OMC Meeting Report

G-Man, Krome, Bomber, Prospect, Duke and  (Grim, photographer)

The OMC members gathered at the appointed time and place.  Present: Bomber, G-Man, Krome, Grim, Duke, Rip City (momentarily) and Prospect.  Absent:  Smooth.

Rip City was under the weather and departed after fulfilling a commitment with the Prez.  He is a man of honor.

We immediately heartily engaged ourselves in powering through as much Taco Bell cuisine as safely possible.  What a treat!  Big thanks to Duke for providing the TB and to G-Man for the liquid refreshment.

We introduced the Prospect to all attendees although he is well known to all of us from many rides and contacts.  Grim will be conducting an email ballot very soon to confirm his membership.  Please answer my email in a timely manner.  If the Prospect is ratified, his membership will be formalized at the May meeting.  I am only using Prospect to describe the new prospective member as his nickname is yet to be decided by the Prez.  

We discussed possible excursions to Front Sight training in Pahrump, Nevada for pistol and/or rifle training.   Grim is looking at dates at the end of April or the beginning of May.  The four day rifle class is beckoning Grim.  Here is the link to the training site:

Grim then presented a short primer on "Grim's mindset and focus" when leading an OMC run.  All present became quite engaged in the discussion and important questions were raised and answered along with the outline handed out by Grim.  This outline will be the focus of the next President's Blog post.  It was a great discussion and great knowledge and illumination was gathered by all.  A future discussion will probably be repeated when the two absent OMC members are present.

We badmouthed and talked trash about the missing members for the proper commensurate amount of time per tradition.

Grim remembers laughing pretty hard, at times, but doesn't remember exactly why.  Guess that's okay.

Krome displayed pictures of his new Road Glide Special and it should be present at the April Social. Information about the April Social will be forthcoming.  Hopefully, the weather will be nice enough for a ride to dinner somewhere since daylight savings time will be in effect.

The door prizes, in Grim's opinion, were some of the best ever and the only loser turned out to be Krome.  He did get a new copy of the OMC Constitution and By-Laws so he didn't leave completely empty handed.  

See you at the April Social.  Please let the Prez know if you are not able to attend (Grim already knows Bomber and G-Man will be absent smelling out rust somewhere.)
