Sunday June 25 meeting at Mike Mulcahey’s Shop
By Jay Tynes
The NTNOA Monthly meeting for June 2025 was held at Michael Mulcahey’s shop
in Dallas. We want to send a huge THANK YOU to Michael and his wife Jody for
the last-minute push in getting his building ready for the meeting. Michael
has spent the past 3 years transforming a rundown seedy (former illegal
strip club) building into a beautiful air-conditioned dream shop. His
microcar collection and many cool vintage motorcycles provided a perfect set
up for the meeting. We had over 50 people turn out and all the Tacos from
Rusty Tacos were consumed. Several riders braved the high temperatures to
ride their motorcycles to the meeting.
Next longtime club member extraordinaire Randy B. gave us an update on his
recent trip to England and the Isle of Man TT. What he described sounded
like a wonderful trip. Following Randy, Patrick de Zeeuw spoke about his
personal epic ride. He covered 4 States and 4250 miles on his adventure.
Concluding the stories of recent rides Club President Richard Bowman and
Club Vice-President Jay Tynes provided commentary on the epic ride from
Portland, Oregon to the International Norton Owners Club rally in Quincy,
Ca. The crew landed in Portland on Saturday afternoon, enjoyed a ride down
to La Pine, Oregon, followed by the next day riding to Susanville, Ca.
Monday’s journey took us from Susanville to Quincy, Ca. The INOA put on a
great event with a bike show, guest speakers, ice cream socials, poker runs,
and both guided and non-guided rides. The backdrop of the Plumas Sierra area
and the breath-taking views of the Feather River Canyon proved to be a
splendid time for riding and socializing. The cool temps were a fine break
from the Texas heat.
After the ride updates, we moved on to cover new club business. Flyers for
the raffle bike and LOP were handed out. Jeff Myers gave us an update on
LOP, everything is going well. Registration is now open! Please remember you
must purchase your LOP registration and or LOP T-shirt on the NTNOA club
website. If you need a RV site or Tent site with power, please go direct to
Yellow Rose Canyon website to reserve. Please register early if you can,
this helps us with much needed information to help planning and
coordination.
