May 25th Meeting at The Back Nine Addison, TX
by Jay Tynes
Our May 25th, 2025 Meeting was held at The Back Nine in Addison, Texas.
A HUGE THANK YOU goes out to long time club member / volunteer
extraordinaire Randy Bauer for setting up the meeting and organizing the
bike show.
Club President Richard Bowman began the meeting by saying hello to our
guests and new members. He then passed it over to Club VP Jay Tynes to give
an update on the past weekend's Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride. This was the
first year that Fort Worth had its own ride separate from Dallas. The Fort
Worth team raised $11K year one (Go Fort Worth!) For those who don’t know
about the DGR it’s a charity ride on British and European motorcycles
(although all bikes are welcome) where the participates “ride dapper” many
wearing suits, tweed vest, etc. Back in 2014 this started off as a humble
ride for folks who like European motorcycles to raise money for prostate
cancer / men’s health medical research. Fast forward to 2025 there were 1038
cities that hosted rides worldwide, with over 126,000 riders raising a total
of $7.3 Million Dollars! Cheers to everyone who participated and donated.
Following those updates, we moved on discussing raffle bike sales. Anyone
who has connections to the North Texas Moto Guzzi community please reach out
to the club officers. We need to share the beautiful Guzzi raffle bike info
with them.
Next, Our 2025 LOP Rallye Chairman, Jeff Myers gave us an update on all
things LOP. This year the LOP dates are October 9th-12th. As a reminder you
can now book your LOP campsites / RV sites since we are booking direct on
