Clubhouse dispatch
Message from the Prez
11 years ago you were all boys. Now, you are BACON boys. The highest standard of human achievement. The pinnacle of manhood. This club is made up of individuals, but it is the individuals that make the club. Let's rally together to make Bacon Boys the greatest club south of Lake America. Let's Toast to where we have come from and to where we may go. This magazine serves as a testament to efforts of thirsty men. This inaugural edition is dedicated to the bacon boys riding club, and to the bacon in all of us. Let's get greasy and grimy and ride the mountains. Long live the Bacon Boys. Godspeed
