Fred, I have to disagree with this too, on a purely financial basis. By
forcing members to join two clubs, you've effectively doubled the price of
admission to the club. This likely isn't an issue for a typical Model A
owner, but I know it is for some Triumph owners (as it was for me just a few
years ago).
Mind, I'm not complaining about high membership dues. Printing and mailing
a newsletter costs money, even with all unpaid volunteers putting it
together. But let's not raise the "price of admission" any higher than we
have to !
