Lost Wheels MC -Club Information

LOST WHEELS MOTORCYCLE CLUB, Inc.

GLENHAM, NY 12527

HISTORY

Lost Wheels Motorcycle Club was started in 1974 by a small group of riders who worked for Con Edison. This group organized rides and started the first poker run. They would meet at each others homes and draw names to see who would hold the next meeting. It is rumored that the name "Lost Wheels" came about because the members always seemed to make at least one wrong turn on a ride and wind up lost.

Lost Wheels MC is guided by a set of by-laws which state that the "objectives of the Lost Wheels Motorcycle Club are to promote interest in and encourage participation in a wide range of motorcycle activities such as safety, races, trips, lessons, and any other group participation activities".

Honorary Member Marshall Warfield

Marshall Warfield, long time member of the LWMC, passed away unexpectedly at his home in Chiefland , Florida , on Sunday March 9^th. It is with great sadness that his friends and family face life without Marshall .

Marshall was a very gregarious person who was always looking to help others, and knew how to truly enjoy life. He had many close friends and all that met him were easily drawn to his warm personally. It was an honor to know him and a joy to watch him live life to its fullest. His legacy will remain with all that knew him for a long time, and he will be deeply missed.
