I hear you Ron...life gets busy, even for a retired bum like myself.
My impression of the BFC though is that it exists as a mechanism to enable
Rivendell owners and friends of the marque to support RBW's philanthropy.
The only commitment asked of BFC "members" is to spend a few bucks on
patches, stickers or apparel. I like seeing that sort of business
investment in our larger society, and I am happy to support it.
For a number of years I regularly attended BMW Motorcycle Owners of America
camping rallies. A standing feature of BMW MOA rallies is a raffle with
the proceeds going to benefit a service agency in the host community. I
always made it a standing habit to buy a few tickets, as did the vast
majority of attendees. I felt it was a good thing. Maybe this stems from
some sort of personal guilt over being privileged enough to indulge my $$$
obsessions - but regardless, the result is still a benefit to the society I
live in.
I will be proudly displaying my Bicycle Fan Club patch in the map pocket of
my handlebar bag and keeping my eye peeled for fellow BFC members.
