Notes:

  • The SCRC Winged Patch(s) can only be procured via the "National Web-Site, Online store"! (This patch is required for all Officers!)

  • 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.

MEMORIAL RIDE  for STEVE KATZ
Saturday, May 10th 2025

                                     Route as planned
10 people headed out on a 145 mile round trip ride to some of Steve's favorite spots.
The weather was mostly cloudy with the potential of rain. By the 4th/5th stops the clouds broke and the sun came out.
We believe Steve had something to do with this!
It turned out to be a beautiful day.
Lunch at Three Bananas was very good and the company was great!
Our stop at Surfin Scoops was very tasty and Josh the owner setup motorcycle parking just for SCRC. Our ASO got carried away with his ice cream, LOL!
Abby had a private moment on the beach where she released Steve's ashes to the waves.
Abby was very appreciative that her SCRC family could be there and take part in this.
We were honored to have been tasked by Abbie to take Steve on his last ride!
MAY OUR BROTHER CRUISER FOREVER REST IN PEACE!
 
 
Chapter 702 Pop Up Ride
Saturday, May 17th 2025
Dest: Old Crow BBQ
, Umatilla, Fl

14 bikes with 15 people departed our Racetrack Station meet up location with Charles leading the pack, Cooter in the middle and Jerry as Tail Gunner. We headed out for a 120 plus mile round trip ride through rural Florida. Yes, it did get hot on the way back 96 deg!
Out food was excellent, although some of us had to wait to get our order, we kinda filled the place! I did not hear any complaints, as everyone was enjoying the camaraderie. There was lots of laughing, and of course Tim was clowning as usual!
Charles did a great job navigating and getting the group to the restaurant and home safely. Jerry, as Tail Gunner was picking up the parts that fell off!!!! LOL
