Happy July 4th. I take time to wish all of our past and present Military personal a personal thank you for all you have given for our freedom. I am honored to count some of you as members of the "Intruders of Hawaii MC".
The day started out wonderful as Sparky and I cruised in from Waikiki. We got to the FRA for our monthly meeting of SBUHI. About 9:30 in cruised the group, Kim, Cindy and Ray, Bucky, Dandy, Papa "G", Pat aka, Calvin and Steve L. We greet all and welcome our two new Ohana members, Sherie and Kassie Nakaya. Sheri is Papa "G's" daughter and Kassie is his granddaughter. Welcome aboard.
Greetings all around and it's decided that we head to H-1 and travel towards Kaneohe. The weather is beautiful and as we make our way to H-3, I decide to cruise around Lanikai and take in the sites. The beaches are full and lots of traffic but all is going well and we are making good time.
We are enjoying the sites and taking it slow when the trike decides it wants to rest. We all pull over and Calvin comes with his little tool box. A neighbor helps by giving the trike a jump, we fire it up and it's off again. As we make the turn at the end of Lanikai to start back out, the trike stops and this time it's not agreeable to starting. Sparky and I are done.
After some discussion and a few phone calls to get AAA to come out, it's decided that Pat, Gordon, our two new Ohana members, Sheri and Kassie and Calvin will head on out. Kimo has to go grab Stacy so Sparky and Cindy make a run into town to grab us some snacks while we wait for Triple A. Nothing like a picnic on the side of the road.
They get back, we snack, talk story and low and behold Triple A to the rescue. They load the trike up on the flatbed and with the gang in tow, we head to Kaneohe to drop the trike.
Sparky's son met us at the houese to get us back to the hotel in Waikiki and we make our good byes to the few and the proud who hung with us. We missed riding with the rest but we are blessed to have a great club and good friends.
Be safe and have a great week.

P.S. Always be sure to check the water in your battery. Lesson learned. The trike is BACK and we will see you Sunday.
