GWRRA Wisconsin Chapter G
Welcome Friends!!!!
Welcome to the Internet home of the Gold Wing Road Rider's Association (GWRRA) Wisconsin Chapter G, also known as "The Greater Milwaukee Wings!" We are a family organization based in the metropolitan Milwaukee Area. We have been in existence since 1983 and we are the largest GWRRA chapter in the state of Wisconsin. Besides our love of Gold Wings, we love to have fun. You will commonly see our members riding together and doing non-motorcycling events. We enjoy meeting new people and we accept new members with open arms. If you have a technical question, most likely someone in our group will be able to assist. Our activities range from safety fairs, weekend camping/hotel trips, winter getaways to fight those winter non-biking blues, hockey games, fundraisers, dinner rides, and the list goes on and on. So, put down the kickstand and take a ride through our pages. If you happen to be in the neighborhood on a social night, stop in, we'd love to see you.
SOCIALS
Socials are typically held on the last Sunday of each month. All Socials are at the Root River Center, 7220 W. Rawson Ave, Franklin (here is a link to a map). Refer to the Events page for specific dates and times.

Animal Hazards
Swerve or Panic Stop?
By: James R. Davis
It doesn't happen
very often but even while traveling on a freeway you can suddenly be confronted
with an animal in your path. Certainly it happens with some frequency in the
country, and on city streets you must be ever concerned about usually
domesticated types.
Those of us who ride in the country tend to confront five types of animals with
some regularity: deer, dogs, cattle, birds and horses in roughly that order of
frequency. On surface streets there are usually just two varieties: dogs and
children (both an animal and wildlife in my book.) Dogs on a freeway are usually
road kill before you get to them.

As always, remember it’s not about the destination; it’s about the ride, so please ride safe!
