We are a family organization based in the metropolitan Milwaukee Area. We have been in existence since 1983 and we are one of the larger GWRRA chapter in the state of Wisconsin. Besides our love of Gold Wings, we love to have fun.  You will commonly see our members riding together and doing non-motorcycling events.  We enjoy meeting new people and we accept new members with open arms.  If you have a technical question, most likely someone in our group will be able to assist.  Our activities include safety fairs, weekend camping/hotel trips, winter getaways to fight those winter non-biking blues, fundraisers, dinner rides, and the list goes on and on.  If you happen to be in the neighborhood on a social night, stop in, we’d love to see you.

JANUARY 2020 EVENTS:

1.Wednesday Jan. 15, 2020 ROMEO lunch ride. This month we’ll meet at 11:30 at The Cheesecake Factory in Mayfair Mall. Mayfair is located on Hwy 100 north of North Ave. 2.Wednesday Jan. 22.

 FROM THE DIRECTORS:

First of all we want to wish everyone a blessed Christmas. We hope you’ll all be able to spend lots of time during the holidays with all your loved ones and friends. That’s the best possible thing to do at this time of year.

Because this time of year is often insanely busy, and because we all want to reserve as much time as possible for family, we are continuing the tradition of having very little chapter activity in December. We’ll have a ROMEO breakfast ride to Miss Katie’s diner on the 11^th, but that will be the only chapter event for the month.

In January we’ll get back into the swing of things with a ROMEO lunch ride on the 15^th and we have tentatively scheduled our annual holiday party on the 22^nd instead of a monthly dinner ride. All the information is located above.

Again, we wish everyone a merry and blessed Christmas and a happy and safe New Year.

 FROM THE DIRECTORS:                                                                                                                        Since we live in Wisconsin, the riding season is pretty much over for now, but the holidays are rapidly approaching so we’ll have plenty to do to stay busy.                                                       During November we continue our regular chapter events. We’ll have a ROMEO lunch ride and our monthly dinner ride. PLEASE SEE THE INFORMATION ABOVE CONCERNING THE CHANGE OF VENUE. (We’re told the staff reported for work one day and the doors were locked and never re-opened.)                                                                                                                                                     We’ll hold our social on the last Sunday of the month as usual.                                                            As you can see from the above information, however, we greatly curtail our events for the month of December. Everyone is just too busy preparing for the holidays and then celebrating with family and friends to spare much time for non-essentials.                                                       We want to wish everyone a pleasant and enjoyable Thanksgiving day, and if you’re so inclined a crazy but money saving Black Friday.                                                                                                  We hope to see you all at our November events.                                                                                      Rich & Sharon Winkler – Chapter G director

 FROM THE DIRECTORS:

It’s hard to believe the summer is almost over.                                                                              August certainly was packed full of many fun filled events with our chapter, the district, and even with what used to be Region E.                                                                                                          The Region E Reunion Ride-in to La Crosse was a great time. Rich Winkler and Mark Hansen from our chapter attended. We had some great rides, lots of fun and fellowship, and just an altogether enjoyable time with Wingers from all over the Midwest. There were  even riders from as far away as Oklahoma who made the trip.

Shortly after that we had our annual Chapter G corn roast/picnic at Jackson park in Milwaukee. The weather was perfect, the food was good, and the fellowship was outstanding.

We had members of Chapters F, K, and N join us:

We didn’t compete for the Chapter Challenge Trophy this year, but we did have a great time playing Bocci Ball. None of us had ever played it before, so it was a great learning experience for all of us. We played guys against the gals and it was a spirited contest the whole way. The guys won, but we’re not certain if it was because the gals let us win.                                                          One of our most enjoyable events normally takes place in mid-September, but as was noted above, our annual Fall Fling to Konkapot Lodge near Bowler WI, had to be cancelled this year because of schedule conflicts for some of the few members who still wanted to attend. There just weren’t enough people going to hold the event. We’re hoping to renew it in 2020.

We are still holding our ROMEO lunch ride, monthly dinner ride, and social in September, so we’re really looking forward to seeing you at one or all of our events this month. We’ll be having a great time.
