Chapter Member Spotlight - Jimmy & Sarah Brown

Chapter Member Spotlight - Jimmy & Sarah Brown I have been riding motorcycles since I was 4. About two weeks after my dad took the training wheels off of my bicycle, he brought home a Yamaha YZ50, the YZinger. I got my first street bike when I was 15. A Suzuki GS650. I appreciate all manner of motorcycles, but since that first inline 4, I have preferred V-Twin cruisers. I’m on my 12th off-road bike, and my 12th street bike. Sarah started riding when she met me in 2002.

Chapter Member Spotlight - Mark & Micki Babineaux

Chapter Member Spotlight - Mark & Micki Babineaux I’ve been riding since my High School days, (in other words a long time). The first scooter that I had was a Vespa. Then in “73” I graduated to a Yamaha. As the years flew by, I went to a CB 360 Honda, a 500 Suzuki, and then a Honda 750 ACE. I kept that Honda for 10 years and rode it 7,500 miles.

Chapter Member Spotlight - Brad Vidrine

Chapter Member Spotlight - Brad Vidrine Well, Mine is a long story with lots of twists and turns. As most folks, I had lots of dreams. Both 4 wheeled and 2 wheeled.
