Brothers/Sisters,
It’s time to ride with purpose. Some of you may have heard your CSAA talk about this idea for a while and we have finally been able to put some time into a route (with a little AI assistance) that will take us all around Orlando where you can jump in at any point and not have to ride all the way across town just for the meeting.
On Saturday, July 12th, we’ll be circling the region—East to South to West to North—linking up with our CVMA family before heading into our monthly meeting at VFW Post 10139 in Chuluota. We're calling it the Chapter Camaraderie Skully Pick-Up Ride, and it's about more than the miles—it's about unity, presence, and showing up strong.
We’ll follow scenic backroads as much as possible with planned stops in St. Cloud, Clermont, and Sanford, giving everyone a chance to jump in, connect, and enjoy the ride together. The VFW is opening early at 2:00 PM (to include bar service), so we’ll arrive ready to hydrate, hang out, and handle chapter business.
Once the chapter meeting is over, you are welcome to hang around the post to share a laugh or two with your Brothers & Sisters, maybe a drink - but not too many if you are on the riding/driving, please - and some food from the VFW's kitchen. You are also welcome to head out if you have a long ride home, or to head somewhere else if you want. No pressure to stay, but we hope you will.
All other chapters are welcome to join us for any part or all of the ride and if you have someone that you know that rides that needs some camaraderie, even if they aren't a Veteran, invite them to join us as well. All riders will be expected to follow our chapter's riding SOP that will be briefed at each stop on the route.
