First, I would like to thank everyone who came out to the 2021 Florida Motorcycle Expo that was held at Bert’s Barracuda Harley-Davidson. The place was packed on Saturday and after talking to the vendors and a lot of people who showed up, everyone had a great time and did well! Now it’s time to start the planning process all over again! In 2022 We will be having national bands back again as our headliners on Friday and Saturday night. We couldn’t get them this past year due to the pandemic. A Big thank you goes out to our Sponsors and vendors who helped make this year’s expo happen! Special Thanks to Bert’s Barracuda and The Law Offices of Fran Haasch, our two biggest title sponsors. We love you guys, and it would have never happened without your support! THANK YOU! Second, our annual Soaked and Sore Ass Poker Run lived up to its name for sure this year. We saw tons of rain when we hit the East Coast of Florida. In Fact, it rained almost the whole way up to Savannah Harley. We had one of our biggest turn outs in the past 10 years with just about 300 hands sold, That’s a lot of people! Most people made it to the end, but a handful didn’t. If you didn’t make it, we will have shirts and patches at Quaker steak and lube Wednesday night bike nights for the next few weeks. Just show up and show us your receipt and that you didn’t make

8

the end stop (due to rain or traffic accidents) and we will get you your shirt patch and certificate. Next year the end destination was decided on by the riders, they have chosen that we will be going back to Panama City Beach in 2022! We have set up our annual 5 Bridge Poker Run for July 17th! This is a great ride that goes over the 5 major bridges that connect the Tampa Bay Area. Those 5 bridges are: Courtney Campbell Causeway, Bayside, Gandy, Howard Frankland, and of course the Skyway. We are starting at MORAMOTO TAMPA with registration from 10am till 12noon. We will have the bridges to travel and your stops at the beginning. We are ending again at the Winghouse of Ellenton for the awards and good food and drinks! Yes, it will be hot and yes it might rain, so be prepared for a fun ride! There are cash prizes for top 3 best hands and worst hands. The cash is determined by the hands sold on the ride at the registration, it’s usually around $1000 split up so it’s always a fairly good pay out at the end! For more info call us at 727-935-4875. We are in the heart of Summer, but we are already looking forward to Sturgis, Biketoberfest, Cotee River Bike Fest, Leesburg Bike Fest, St. Pete Beach Bike Fest and all the other great events that are happening towards the end of this year. Please be sure to drink lots of water and look for shade when you are out and about in this heat! I hope everyone has a safe and happy 4th of July! I would also like to take this time and welcome Dave Ashby to the Full Throttle Team and family! Dave is a great guy who has been helping do the distribution the past few months and is extremely passionate about the motorcycle community. Welcome to the team Dave "Toolman"!

Hello from under my rock! I've been in moving hell and all that it encompasses from the house search to selling my home on Anna Maria Island. I got divorced, sold my Bike sadly and got a hernia (I am most upset about the bike). No time for a boyfriend yet, I probably should have grabbed one before the move haha. I'll get it all under control , I've had a lot of help, thankfully my awesome sister Kelly who lives in Nicaragua came and took charge ! She is building an eco school and community down there called “harmonia” look it up. Yes we are a family of hippies. I want to thank all who attended our FullThrottle Expo, it was epic! We also had a great time working the “Ink the Bay” event in Tampa, look 14

for the next one in the fall.The soaked and sore ass run to Savannah was just that, thanks to all who braved the rain. Dan Sullavan is almost back ! In July we will be at War Horse H-D for the 1st annual ”War Horse Warrior Fest “ with “50 Legs” to help amputee bikers on July 10th. Along with many other great events we just updated our pages with. I need to give a special shout out to “Hard Money Jen” who has done the impossible to make sure I have a roof over my head until my loan closes. If you're having problems buying a home, she can help with more unconventional financing.www. associateshomeloan.com I've done multiple “hard money” loans as an investor but never have I gotten this kind of service, she is terrific and works with all types of credit. Next month I'll show you what she has helped me accomplish ! Until then it's back to my rock, but you can always find me in the digital world ! Peace and love to the Biker world, Laurie Jo

It’s summer time and you know what that means!!! More motorcycles on the road and guess what? There are now more women motorcycle owners than men, and that is according to the Motorcycle Industry Council Owner Survey. So where does a lady rider go if she wants to ride with other women? Diva Angels, that’s where. You may be that one rider that likes to ride alone but there are others who love group rides. Riding together is an exhilarating experience. Just picture this… she sits firm on her horse of steel, with open air in her face, wind whipping her hair, a sense of freedom settles in and all your troubles disappear for a while. That’s a feeling of greatness and power we share together.

16

As a whole, the Diva Angels offer so much more than just being a group of female riders. We do community work, charity events, donate to causes, volunteer time to events like Stand Down, Hunger Walk and the list goes on and on. By the way, we are a 501c (7) not for profit organization. Pasco Chapter Diva Angels meet the 1st Friday of each month, 630 social 7-8p meeting and our meet locations vary. For more information you can visit us at DivaAngels.org, Facebook @ DivaAngelsPasco, Instagram @DivaAngelsPasco or send a email to DivaAngelsPC@gmail.com … oh and if you see a Diva Angel out and about, stop and say hi!

Ocala Forest Roads Get away from the crowds. This ride through the Ocala National Forest takes you rolling down back roads where the only things you need to look out for are the forest creatures. It’s a great ride but be especially wary riding through here at night. Hitting a bear in the dark sucks. This ride has a bit of everything, tight curves, long straight runs, and even a few hills. Enjoy!

at them. Finally, he had nothing left to throw but a tiny bell and he started ringing it…..not knowing if it would help, but he wanted to die thinking of the children at the home he would be leaving behind. The Biker Nation tells the complete story of the legend – “The story is told of an old grey bearded biker who, late one night, was headed home from a road trip to Mexico. In his saddlebags were gifts and trinkets for the kids that lived at the orphanage where he worked. As he rode alone in the cool desert air, he felt blessed for his own life, the children at the home, his biker friends and most importantly his bike, that had never let him down. He had spent many a mile on the highway with this bike and the two had formed a bond, as only bikers can understand. As he rumbled along the high desert, the full moon lighted up the sky and silhouettes of the cactus cast eerie shadows along the desert floor, the old graybeard was unaware that a few miles up the road awaited a nasty little group of road gremlins, intent on its next victim. Road gremlins are evil little creatures that leave obstacles in your path – old mufflers, pieces of rubber, boxes, diesel fuel, and unexplained objects you never see that cause a tire to go flat or a chain or belt to break. They also chase animals and deer into the path of unsuspecting bikers. Road gremlins sole purpose is to make a biker crash…adding notches to their little belts. They are evil and nasty little pieces of creation. As the biker rounded the curve, the road gremlins ambushed him with everything they had, causing him to crash and skid. He awoke in the ditch, barely alive. Nearby was one of his saddlebags that had ripped off his bike. The biker lay there, helpless and unable to move as the road gremlins began moving in to finish him off. The old graybeard wasn’t going to give up easily and started throwing things from the saddlebag

44

Surprisingly the sound of the tinkling bell seemed to confuse the gremlins, and they paused in their attack. The old biker was encouraged, but he was still in a bad way. He didn’t know how long the bell would keep the gremlins away, and the gremlins were between him and his bike with no way for him to make a fast getaway. Not far away, two other bikers coincidentally had just stopped to make camp for the night. They were unaware of the crash, as they had been riding 30 miles or so behind the old biker and stopped before the curve of the crash site. As they dismounted, they heard the bell ringing and ringing. Thinking that was an odd thing to hear in the middle of the desert, they quickly went to investigate. They came upon the old biker in the ditch with the gremlins surrounding him. With a vengeance, and without concern for their own safety, the two bikers attacked the gang of road gremlins, killing several and scaring off the rest. The old biker was grateful for their help and offered money to his saviors, but they refused to accept any payment. The old biker wanted to show his gratitude and wouldn’t let the two bikers leave without something for their good deed. The old biker cut off two pieces of leather from his saddlebags tassels and tied a bell to each piece. He then attached the bells to the two bikers bikes as close to the ground as possible. The old biker then told his new friends that with those bells attached to their bikes, they would be protected

from the road gremlins and if they were ever in trouble, to ring the bell and a fellow biker would come to their aid. So whenever you see a biker with a bell you’ll know that he has been blessed with the most important thing in life — friendship from a fellow biker. Others believe gremlins live on motorcycles because they love to ride and are the cause of most bikers’ problems, like when the tires go flat, the horn won’t work or any several hundreds of things that can go wrong. Evil road spirits can’t live near a bell because they get trapped in the hollow of the bell. Their hearing is hypersensitive so the constant ringing in a confined space drives them insane. They lose their grip and eventually fall onto the roadway. That is how potholes are formed. If you buy your own bell, the magic will still work but if you receive one as a gift from a friend or a loved one the magic is doubled because out there somewhere you have a friend looking out for you. If you steal a bell from a biker, you steal all the gremlins and the evil that comes with them. It is ill-advised that you steal a bell, the consequences could be dire.”

In these times, when mere common mortals deliberately and shamelessly choose to step on our beloved Star Spangled Banner – The American Flag. We witness new generations take pleasure boastfully calling what is good; “bad” and, what is bad; “good”, as prophesized in the Good Book. With Independence Day as a backdrop to these benefactors of freedom, I have the honor and the privilege to write about a most uncommon servant-warrior. Her spirit makes Russell Crow’s “Maximus” of the movie Gladiator insignificant. How? Maximus fought the visible at much smaller scale with primitive weapons. She fights both, visible and invisible on a global scale with indescribable mental, emotional and dare I say spiritual weaponry. She does that while keeping absolute composure with meaningful thanksgiving for the honor to fight for our freedom so we can fulfill our true potential as citizens in our most beloved America. To many she will need no introduction. To others, it would serve them well to get acquainted with who protects and serves them with the freedom we all enjoy. She as well will tell you there is no exclusivity or proclivity to Serving her country, there are others with whom she interacts daily…both U.S. and allied forces who she attests do the same. She emphasizes a world made of people trying to realize purpose.

• University of South Florida - Cyber/Electronic Operations and Warfare Her professional summary purposefully reads with humility: “Laser focused Medical Operational Readiness and Planning Specialist “tied to the mast” of mitigated suffering and loss of combat force. Demonstrated knowledge of domestic and global healthcare delivery systems optimized to assure Homeland Security Initiatives. Skilled in Joint Military Operations, Planning & Readiness, Exercise Construct, Analytical Skills, Emergency Management, Disaster Management and Intelligence. Defense of Freedom with a Happy Heart and Strong Spirit!” After reading her written work at www.janettearencibia. com one can discern an undeniable inspirational spirit-led life. It is packed with power far beyond thoughts which she is incredibly gifted to help the reader understand by using simplicity, colorful poetic fluidity and photography. Janette won the prestigious Keith L. Ware Photography Award during her service in Afghanistan. Daughter to a preacher, she would unknowingly develop a passion for writing as a result of typing her father’s sermons each Saturday. To hear her speak of this experience is to take a journey back in time where no electricity was needed to create a typed, finished message. Janette has become a quasi-pen-palkindred-spiritedsister to me over the years. We knew a day of mutual collaboration would come. I have interviewed celebrities whom I then published were capable to “slay dragons”. Today I say Janette crowns them all with unparalleled ease. They would all agree. Always encouraging, lifting and building others up, Janette is contagiously positive. Proud mother of two, Janette holds no bar charging her readers and whoever she crosses paths with to live a life filled with passion and persistent purpose. Her wordsmith flows so purely and beautifully, it makes mine default to lowly levels of timid embarrassment. She would say the same of her own work when compared to poets she aspires to immolate that include Walt Whitman, Robert Burns and yes…her very own brothers who also subscribe to poetic verbiage, however sometimes in jest…as brothers will do. Currently stationed in South Korea, Janette and I videoconferenced on a few Saturday mornings while I enjoyed a strong coffee in the comfort of my home. We shared stories and laughter as well as some thoughts on unity in our country. Sitting in her home next to a cello she just started to learn, Janette mentioned she was in the midst of studying North and South Korea’s history. “Understanding the past is critical to deal with the present and not repeat past errors” she said. Janette has her Harley Davidson Sportster stored at Bert’s Barracuda for the duration of her deployment. “Isn’t it amazing Bert does that for me and deployed service personnel out there? The support I get from friends, family and the biker community is so touching. Doing this interview is a bit like keeping in touch with you all and an opportunity to express gratitude”.


During our conversation Janette also shared about meeting Fran Haasch for the first time while attending a Wreaths Across America several years ago in Bushnell Florida. It was raining buckets. She was the only one on a bike while there. Fran Haasch, she recalls, warmly welcomed her with a photo op of course alongside several Buffalo Soldiers. “Fran and her husband Rhett do so much for the community” she said. In Janette’s words, riding is an unspoken universal safety and mutual protection language that has camaraderie, and bond as top priorities. She experienced it first-hand riding through hostile territories as a female in regions where ISIS flags were flying high. She did this alongside other riders from the same Middle Eastern countries who she knew had her back. Her heartfelt wishes as she sacrificially serves and as greatest reward to her is that heartfelt unity will prevail in great spirit through the homeland. An excerpt from her reflections on D-Day, having lost a very good WWII Veteran friend who promised he’d stay alive until she returned from her deployment to Bahrain last year…as he did;

“May our Forces have the blessing, of America strong at heart That knows the cost of war, and that suffering leaves its mark” Two months later and four days before his 100th birthday, Roy Duncan passed on to celebrate his 100th birthday among other WWII Veterans…in heaven. As Deputy Surgeon in South Korea, Janette’s mission alongside her Service counterparts is to anticipate the minimization of war casualties and maintain the safety of allies within the operation and exercise of missile defense. In other words, her job is to anticipate any and all health issues that may affect us and our allies on a global scale. As such I of course hit on the topic of COVID. From Janette’s point of view; Viruses are just part of life and an evolving nature. Humans don’t like what they cannot control. Overall COVID’s death rate is less than 1%. This virus will not kill all of us but it will make some very sick and can cause death. We cannot control what we cannot control and the great divide among us all when it comes to COVID is our desire to control. This desire to control drives some to anger, greed, wants, selfishness, pride, blame etc… Total control is not a possibility. All we can do is adapt. This is precisely what nature does even through COVID and now the DELTA Variant of COVID, it adapts, it evolves. We need to do the same. On the vaccine, we in USA need to consider the value of research from allies outside of USA. US military does not mandate the vaccine because it is not FDA approved. Janette however did take the vaccine. Why I asked? Her personal convictions dictate that as a guest in foreign land, she feels it is her duty to take all precautionary measures in an irreproachable manner to protect our allies. That is, even at the risk of her own life. If that vaccine would kill her, she is completely fine sacrificing her own life for our freedom that way too. Proud mother of two beautifully grown daughters,

Janette is preparing her application for the Pat Tillman scholarship for a Ph.D in Behavioral Health at Oxford. I can foresee Janette being a well sought after inspirational public speaker. As a member in good standing of the fraternal order of St. Barbara Infantry, there aren’t many weapons Janette has not handled however she does attest to the utilization of her own hands as weapons against her oldest brother once where immediately afterward her father provided the course correction that made her learn there is always someone bigger than you. She and her family recently joked about this experience. This warrior subscribes to subtle defense mechanisms such as Kun Tao. She boldly says to me with a grin “there are seven points on a human body I know of that will make you bleed out within 10 minutes and I can hit each one facing you in less than 5 seconds”. The Saturday mornings of recent have been well spent and in good company. I have learned that imparting wisdom through learned experience is all encompassing for it is in witnessing reality where we find truth. The freedom we all enjoy is a result of sacrifices made by altruistic heroes such as Janette. Would it not be for our USA service men and women, the likelihood of living in a dictatorsrun world on a global scale without any peace, full of hatred would I assure you all be a reality. Let’s be very careful not to take anything for granted. When we light up those fireworks for the fourth of July, let’s remind our children of history. Because without knowing or understanding our true, factual and accurate history well beyond the deception of the “woke” and “cancel-culture” pawns lays our unity. Janette I humbly salute your heart, your soul and your spirit. May God bless America, our children and their future with Truth, understanding, discernment, wisdom, the mental, emotional and spiritual weaponry needed to defeat evil in this world to live free.
