Originally Published in Southeastern Rider Magazine, December 2017 Monday, June 19th, 2017 For nearly the last two decades, I have made a once a year trip to gather with my fellow brother and sister riders who make up Cruiser Club, USA. Gathering of Eagles started out being hosted by the chapters of the club that dotted across the country. As the event matured, so did our planning, and recently we moved to holding the event at a vacation destination. For the twenty-first edition, the Eagles Gathered in Fontana Damn, North Carolina. Even though this meant the event was in the same state that I reside, don’t go thinking that I can’t figure out a way to leave the state on my way there. As you are about to find out, we would spend most of the day across the border. This is also Kasey and I’s vacation for the year, and in that spirit, my riding partner decided she needed a break from making meals, so our first stop would be breakfast. We left Locust, North Carolina and headed south
