  • The Road Captain, and Safety Captain Patches will be given only to those Members that have completed a Chapter Riding Guidlines and Safety Briefing or otherwise show relevant experience!

  • There is a placement diagram for SCRC patches. I found it on Rickster's original web-site. While not very clear it is clear enough to be serve as an official patch placement guide! The example below is of my vest and the placement of individual patches.
    I had the patches sized to make vertical alignment a bit easier to accomplish.

CHAPTER 702 COMPLETED POP UP RIDE
Saturday, January 11th 2024
Dest Was: Angela's Diner, 190 S Atlantic Ave, Ormond Beach, FL 32176
Four bikes depart our usual meet up point on this brisk Florida morning. The restaurant was a pleasant surprise. The food was good and hot the service fast. This was a shorter ride than we would normally undertake, due to the cool air and possibility of a shower. We split at the restaurant for the trip home, two heading home and Cooter and Jerry heading to the Daytona Flea Market. I needed a repair on my vest! Lo and behold who should we meet but the Great Mikey (Chapter 131) and his better half!
We enjoyed this cool but short ride today, all arrived home safely!
