HOWDY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!
Sunday, June 20 marks Father’s Day, a day to enjoy with Dad. If your father has ridden on ahead, it is a great day to remember and honor him. Right here in the June issue of Born To Ride we have a couple of great father and son stories for you. We’ll introduce you to Gary and Ben Francis of Winter Haven, Florida and we’ll learn about their mutual love of motorcycles, wrenchin’ and ridin’ together. Then you’ll meet motorcycle daredevil Shawn Ives and his sons Kile and Cody who ride the Wall of Death motor-drome. Together, they are keeping two-wheeled history alive and kickin’!
The big news in this issue centers around the return of the Great American Motorcycle Rodeo! I am, of course, talking about Motofest. This coming July 24th, Ron and Deb Galletti have organized the ultimate motorcycle event out in Plant City, Florida. When was the last time that you went to a killer biker event? We are talkin’ a throw-down shindig, roll around in the mud, ride in bike show and motorcycle rodeo with all the fixin’s.

I was thinking about some of my riding experiences, both good and not so good, and wondered how I was able to keep from killing myself.

THIS ONE’S FOR THE DADS OUT THERE
HONORING THEIR COURAGE AND SACRIFICE, HAPPY FATHER'S DAY
My Uncle *Gee' was my dad's father figure in his life for many years because his father worked many hours. He came from Italy and worked with marble but than later became ill and couldn't do much with my dad. That's when Uncle 'Gee' stepped in and helped my dad in life as a father figure. So in this month of June. as a special Father's Day tribute, we would like to honor my Uncle "Gee' Fidel Galletti who was a real WWII war hero pilot who flew B-17s. Most of all, he was my dad's hero This story is courtesy of The 390th Memorial Museum and my cousin. Marie Gallletti, Mitchell.
