Further, the Secretary shall ensure that all insurance requirements are met (including participant signatures to required release forms), shall ensure preparation of injury report forms, timely submission of injury report forms to the appropriate insurance company and shall be responsible for the maintenance and storage of release forms and injury reports.


    Other Officer Positions that Can Be Filled:

    7) Road Captain(s): The Road Captain(s) shall be responsible for assisting in the planning of routes for chapter rides and keeping the Chapter informed of all S.R.A. programs.

    Ok Folks,
    We have our first order of business it seems
    What would we like the chapter called??

    See note from the SRA:

    " Cannot be state wide because you can't service the entire state
    we use either a city, range of mountains,a regional the area for a name "

    Looks like we have members from all over the state, so I think something like the mountain range or regional area might be kind of cool ?

    IDEAS Please, I am not so good at this

    Superstition Spyders ( Might be kind of cool, if we had a patch would could use a Dreamcatcher image with a spiderweb in the center ) Just a thought
    Scorpion Spyders
    Gila Spyders
    Desert Spyders
    Saguaro Spyders ( Added 7/31/2015 )

    Sounds like this is going to be another Phoenix group. We are two hours away here in Tucson and would have to ride an extra four hours just to ride with you. (two hours to and two hours from) I used to ride with a M/C group from PHX and a seven o'clock departure meant that I had to leave Tucson at 5AM to be there and then ride another two hours home after the ride. Tried to start a group of riders here in Tucson but very little interest.

    I'm roughly halfway between Phoenix and Tucson..... 60 miles NW to Phoenix, and 80 miles SE to Tucson. I do most of my group riding with the American Legion Riders, and my post (Gilbert) is 27 miles from the house. I tend to have to ride a long way no matter where I go. Just like the summer heat in Arizona, I have gotten accustomed to it.

    I never intened for the chapter to be " Phoenix based ", I was and still aiming for a " state " chapter but the National Chapter is saying it cannot be listed like a state it seems

    No " Spyder Ryders Of Amercia - Arizona " it seems, so instead of being something like " Spyder Ryders Of Amercia - Phoenix,Az " I was hoping to come up with something else :-)

    I live in Glendale, Az and in order me to get to any " Nice " riding spots, Payson / SRC / Mount Lemmon / Etc
    I have to ride 45+ mins to get to a meetup spot so I feel everyone's pain in having to " Do a ride BEFORE doing THE ride "...Haha

    I envison doing rides to alot of diffenet places inside & outside the state ( Spyders In The Redwoods 2016 Hopefuly ) so members in the outlining areas do not " always " have to come to the " valley "

    There are areas that " I" have not been to, Tombstone, Patagonia, Bisbee, etc and I would like to take rides to these kinds of places with other Spyder Ryders

    I like desert spyders of that list. What about Grand Canyon spyders? Sunset Spyders? Monsoon spyders? Ok, kidding about the last one.

    As as for this being a Phx group, I hope not, as I do hope to do rides well outside of Phx. Sedona, pinetop, tombsone, etc. happy to do a ride before a ride.

    I realize that for some trips, such as Sedona, those in Tucson will have to do a ride before a ride. Not sure how we get around this. Just try to balance it out a bit.

    Default Agree with Jack

    I agree with Jack. We have been looking for a riding group, but it seems that they are all based out of Phoenix. Have done rides out of Phoenix, and it makes for a very long day. Would definitely meet up somewhere on an East or South route.

    All I can say is I understand that it can be a pain to have " A Ride BEFORE the Ride ", I would like to see the chapter have rides all over the state not just in the " valley " area..

    I do know of some rides coming up:

    3rd Annual Bikers For Paws, Flagstaff Az ( 9/12/2015 )
    Save the Chesticles, Phoenix AZ ( 9/26/2015 )
    Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation Ride For Kids, Gilbert Az ( 10/18/2015 )
    Cruising For The Cause - Bike & Car Show, Tucson Az ( 10/3/2015 - 10/4/2015 )
    Bikers For Boobies, Scottsdale AZ ( 10/24/2015 )
    Arizona Bike Week 2016, Scottsdale Az ( 4/6/2016 - 4/10/2016 )

    It is up to each person to decide if they would like to be a part of THIS chapter, there is nothing or no one that says that there can not be more than ( 1 ) chapter in Arizona
    If folks want to start chapters in say Yuma / Tucson / Flagstaff or any where else, that would be great and I am sure the National Chapter would think that would be grand also

    But I would welcome Spyder Ryders from ANY city in Arizona if they would like to join, that is why I did not want the chapter to read " - Phoenix, Az "
    I would like to see it with a generic name like " Spyder Ryders Of Amercia - Desert Spyders " or something along those lines so we don not tie it to a " City " if the National Chapter will allow it

    But I think as a " group " we need to work that out before I get back to the National Chapter with what we have decided upon

    Yes it would be, unfortunately the National Chapter has told me a chapter can not be " statewide "

    " Cannot be state wide because you can't service the entire state, we use either a city, range of mountains or a regional area for a name "


    That is why I was trying to come up with a " generic " name for this chapter so folks would not have to feel like the chapter was " Phoenix Based " & that they would " always " have to go to Phoenix to attend rides which I would like to make sure is NOT the case

    Example, say we want to do a chapter ride to the Pima Air & Space Museum which is in the Tucson area
    The members that live in the " Valley " area would have to ride a couple of hours to get there where as the members in Tucson and surrounding areas would ride MUCH less to get there
    Same thing would be if we wanted to go to Tombstone, Patagonia, Bisbee, etc

    ALL members should also have the right to post rides and events that would be of interest to them and/or the chapter and than other members can sign up for them if they like
    This will tie into our chapter bylaws on how rides should be handled


    What I am trying for here to to make sure that members from ANY city in Arizona DO NOT ALWAYS have to " DO a Ride before THE Ride "
    Because trust me, I KNOW what that feels like :-(

    Default I agree Bob

    Well folks If I might add my 2 cents. If I live in Phoenix and I want to ride to Bisbee, and the guys in Tucson are putting it together, I'm still going to Bisbee. If a group in Phoenix is planning a ride to Flag, and I live in Yuma but I want to go to Flag, I go. Not sure I grasp the ride before the ride thing. If I am interested in going, no matter the destination, I consider every mile part of an enjoyable ride. Granted, starting out at 0400 for a 0700 meet up can be problematic for some, thus the need for careful planning. But, if some didn't have to ride further than others, there would be no group riding. Careful planning and a desire to be part of the group makes for happy riders. If, however, your only interested in riding, say, up to 25 miles from home, that could be a problem for you. Hate to state the obvious but Arizona is a huge state and will probably require several chapters to make everyone happy. My thanks go out to Bob and the first group of officer volunteers for the effort in starting the first one. Count me in.

    There is the Southern Arizona Spyder Ryder's group. They can be found on Facebook. We have a ride coming up to Mt Graham. We have riders from Tucson and Cochise county.

    Hello All,
    I talked to Kenneth Miller SRA Executive Director this morning about the chapter naming, here is what I understand:

    1) It can be by city i.e. ==> Phoenix, Az / Tucson, AZ / Yuma, Az / Etc ( They would like to see chapters approx. 100 miles apart )
    2) Area Based ==>Northern Arizona / Southern Arizona / Central Arizona / Etc
    3) Mountain Range ==> Superstitions / White Mountains / Etc
    4) River & Other Areas ==> Salt River / Hassayampa / Monument Valley /
    Saguaro / Desert / Etc

    Patch would kind of look like this:




    Thoughts?

    Default I'll join

    I'm too old to be an officer, though.


    Having gone gone back and read through the thread we could have a rocker above the patch saying "desert Spyders" and a rocker below the patch saying the area. I'm not sure how the "Hell's Angels" would like that though.

    I think BaldEagle has a good point. If you want to ride, you ride. We all understand the problems associated with the ride b4 the ride. The folks you meet and friends you make usually make up for it. My thanks also go out to Bob and the volunteers that helped put this together. Count me in.

    2) Area Based ==>Northern Arizona / Southern Arizona / Central Arizona / Etc
    3) Mountain Range ==> Superstitions / White Mountains / Etc
    4) River & Other Areas ==> Salt River / Hassayampa / Monument Valley /
    Saguaro / Desert / Etc

    Patch would kind of look like this:




    Thoughts?

    Default Nice!

    Love the patches although I'd like a slightly more plain and easy to read font.

    As as for the name, I like all of them although "salt river spyders" rolls of the tongues easier than superstition spyders. Desert spyders is too plain I think.

    But I'm fine with any of them.

    Those patches are the " OFFICAL " Spyder Ryder Of America ones that are made by them, I do not think they can be modified

    The term " Spyders " can not be in the name, because we ALREADY are Spyders

    So, if you look at the lower " Rocker " in the pictures

    S.F. Bay Area Chapter for them
    would be
    Salt River Chapter for us
    Salt River or something else of our choosing

    So, if someone was to ask you about it....you would say I belong to the " SPYDER RYDERS OF AMERICA SALT RIVER CHAPTER"

    I have the sample bylaws that Ken Miller sent me, but I do not want to start work on them until we have a name
    Then the officers will need to come up with " our " set
    Then I will sent that to Ken and it will be reviewed, once everything is good all the officers will need to sign it and it goes back to Ken

    Then we are official and our Facebook page will be created and linked out to the Spyder Ryders Of America webpage

    Goldwing riders use "areas" to designate their chapters. Since we would be the first in Arizona, we could be Area A, and represent any portion of Arizona that we choose. I realize that it's not as sexy as desert or river or a city, but what's important is that we Ryde and have a community.
