Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
I know it's a little early but we're leaving to go out of town tomorrow so I just wanted to wish all the board members a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I am thankful for so many things. Specifically for the opportunities to meet so many great people through the Deal's Gap events. I've made many great friendships and had such great times with those who attended the events. I'd like to break it down by individuals but there just isn't enough time or space to mention them all. Thanks to everyone for making those moments we shared what I consider to be priceless.
This time of year is a good time to reflect on all the good things that we are fortunate to have like a motorcycle, friends, and family. It seems like many on this board have been thru a tough year whether it be physically, financially, or emotionally. But we've all been here for each other and my wish for next year is that we continue to be there for one another! I am proud to be affiliated with such a wonderful group of people!
On a side note, 22 years ago this Christmas, I was in the Army and stationed in Korea on the 38th parallel on border patrol with my fellow mates. It was then that I realized that I should appreciate friends and family more because I was so far away from them. It was also while sitting in a fox hole in the dead of winter at 20 below zero that I realized how good we had it in the states and that I shouldn't take things for grant as much. Isn't it amazing how it takes something like that to open your eyes. I want to thank all the military men and women who are not able to be home this holiday season because they are serving their country. Not only the US soldiers but other allied troops as well. God bless you and our wish for your quick return home safely. From the bottom of our hearts we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Mark and Melissa

Back at you bro.....
I hope you and Melissa have a great Christmas and Happy New Year. It was great talking with you the other day, always good to hear from you. You guys take care......
To all other hooligans: MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
I hope everyone here is blessed this Holiday Season, and gets the chance to spend quality time with friends, loved ones, and family. Be careful if you have to do any traveling, and for god's sake don't drink and drive. Call a freekin' cab if you must get your party on. That's what I'm gonna do.

Then you will fit right in. Come on over and bring your bike. I would like to see someone run a fast time over here so I can see it I am any good.
