LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHERS
Wow, here it is November already! Where is the fall weather?
We cannot wait for some brisk air and for all this rain to be
over! I want to just remind you all of two things. For one, we
ask that while you are thinking about Christmas gifts and all the
holidays coming up to PLEASE shop at the businesses within the
pages of this magazine, as they are the supporters of the biker
community, and they are the reason this magazine is free to you
the reader. The second thing is that if you do not know already,
please go to our website and click on subscription. Its FREE! And
will be automatically be emailed to your email address on the 1st
of each month. We try to get the magazine to every major city in
Louisiana and all the biker friendly places on the gulf coast, but
sometimes the little towns in between, must drive to a local biker
friendly business or Harley Davidson dealership in the nearest
major city, so we just wanted to remind you to go to the website
to stay in touch and informed. NO sales rep will call on you or
sell your email address out to any third-party companies! www.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! And God bless America!
Remember, where there are bikes there is going to be thunder!
Andrew and Renee
R.I.P. to all of our brothers and sisters in the wind who lost the
ride.

Special Thanks & Contributors
First and foremost we would like to express our sincere thanks to our advertisers
and sponsors without whom this magazine could not exist. To all of our faithful
readers who provide us with their stories and information every month. Please
keep them coming! Thanks to our facebook followers that post the cool pictures.
To all of our contributors that help make all of our special photo shoots and
charitable events a success. And a special shout out of love to our beautiful
Louisiana Ladies that model for us every month for our readers viewing
pleasure! Your grace, beauty, style and class are priceless to our magazine!
Finding a location to shoot the
cover was quite the challenge
after 3 postponements due to
bad weather, but finally, even
with the rain, we shot it in only
50 takes!! HAHA! The theme
of course is Thanksgiving and
“coming home for the holidays”
So… Andrew thought he
would take you back to the first
Thanksgiving complete with a
pilgrim and Indian princess,
(except that there were no
motorcycles then). Complete
with Meaty the English bull dog, and chasing down a turkey were
all part of the production. We hope you enjoy this cover along with
the great articles and photos inside.
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
