NOBODY'S ANNUAL MEETING COSTLY

The Nobody meeting became rather costly when Slick refused to pay the entire bill. " I have never paid for my food at a Nobody Annual Meeting", explain President Kickstand. " I don't understand how the newest member of our club could refuse to treat his biker brothers and sisters to their meal!"


Other than a lengthy skirmish after calling Slick cheap and self-serving, the meeting was congenial and productive.


The Nobodies decided:

  • No 1,000 mile clause will be added to the membership agreement
  • No increased benefit package for the President and Vice - President
  • Pinky -T clause added to Charter Document
  • Nobody Biking Season officially starts March 1, 2010
  • Ride to Work Campaign Committee formed (chair Pretzel, members: Slick and Smelty)
  • A new patch will be designed and made available to members. It will be NOBODY RIDERS with the outline of Lake Superior and Longitude and Latitude of Duluth MN.
  • Ride Calendar was reviewed and revised
  • There will be an overnight camp out trip to Copper Harbor
  • There will be a Madeline Island Annual Ride
  • Muffin Rides will be given a priority this season
  • The Nobody Bike Tour 2010 was announced: Bamff Alberta Canada
  • Pretzel was given a Presidential Executive Directive to finish the Side Car Project by August 30, 2010
  • A list of non compliant members was made identifying lack of participation in rides, unauthorized sales of bikes and behaviors that do not be fit the club. All non compliant members will be visited in the next month.
  • The meeting was adorned when our waitress told us to "get out or I will call the police"
