part 2
So ...
Now is the time to stand up and be counted.
So, are you a Friend of Triumph , Triumph enthusiast, or one of the
believers in this Trans American Charity Drive and cause, waiting to
see Uncle Jack hit the highway in Florida and finish in San Luis
Obispo? Want to prove the nay sayers WRONG!!!
The way points and stopovers of this route are pretty much defined, one
or two may be added. However the routes in between each host club are
wide open and up to the host clubs to decide for John. These clubs
should be talking with each neighbor host club for meeting with John at
the midpoint between their club and the departing host club, and
caravaning with John to the midpoint toward the next host club. One car
or two hundred, bring them all to meet John from the previous club and
see him off to the next club. Contact your Governor, local media and
let them know what this drive is all about.
I know times are tough for all of us, but this drive needs ALL of our
help to arrive safely at Triumphest / NATC 2009 in San Luis Obispo.
John Macartney has invested a huge amount of his own personal funds to
make this drive and provide necessary parts for the STTAG.
ISOA has invested a bunch of time and money into this restoration taking
the full restoration on themselves. ISOA for one could sure use your
support. Send them a few bucks and and tell them "thank you for your
hard work over the past 14 months!"

Please become informed about the host clubs along John's route, talk to
John at one of the stop overs and put some cash in his hand and say
"Thank you John Macartney for promoting awareness for this terrible
affliction - PTSD" and visit http://www.triumphtransamerica.org.uk/
and stay updated with regular emails - sign up at
http://triumphtransamerica.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/triumphtrans-americainfo_triumphtransamerica.org.uk
Caravan along with the STTAG, pick up a meal or a tank of gas for John,
or send in a charitable donation of your own directly to one of the
selected PTSD / Trauma charities or organizations.
Get your local club involved in identifying your own local PTSD charity
and aid organizations, and VA hospitals.
DO IT!!
See you in Florida, all along the routes, and San Luis Obispo for
Triumphest / NATC 2009!!

The best trophies are miles on the odometer, stone chips in the paint,
dead bugs on the windshield, and the occasional smell of manure!
