OLD PALM HARBOR 7th. ANNUAL FALL BIKE FEST
&
FULL THROTTLES 13th. ANNIVERSAY
ARTICLE BY ROBERT HARRIS
I carried the Veteran Tribute Bike with Fighter Jet Plane sidecar to Palm Harbor, Florida to share the Tribute Bike and sidecar with those attending on 21st. November 2009. Nice weather , good bike fest , beautiful people. I met quite a few Veterans and even one from my old unit ( 173rd Airborne Brigade “ Separate” ) Veterans and non- Veterans a like showed appreciated for my moving Tribute in honor of all who served and are at present serving.
I was presented a medal ( coin) and asked to put it on the bike which reads ( AC -130 U- Spooky Gunship – Gostriders – Operation Allied Force- Enduring Freedom - Iraqi Freedom.) Sir, it will be an honor and a privileged and it will become a part of the Tribute Bike. These medals ( coins ) are worth more than any trophy money can buy because they represent something bigger than myself. They represent FREEDOM.
On 22 November 2009 I carried the Veteran Tribute Bike to Full Throttle Magazine’s Luck Thirteen Anniversary party in Oldsmar, Florida as I said I would although there was a good likely hood of rain because I am a man of my word. I had the privileged of meeting many of the good people I had met just the day before in Palm Harbor. The day was cloudy and by late afternoon the rain began to fall. I waited to pick up a trophy for first place in my class then headed for home.
I was asked to bring the Veterans Tribute Bike to the L.A.M.A. Club house in Tampa , Florida for a benefit for “ Romy” , a fellow soldier wounded in Afghanistan, next week Saturday 28th. November 2009. I will be there with my Latin Brothers because this is what the Veterans Tribute Bike is all about.
