The National Meeting
approaching, do not
lose time to book
quickly so that the
chapter organizer is
not caught off guard.
comments on social networks and the
national forum, the WFMC is represented
in numbers throughout the country, it's a
good thing for the club's image. What is
less certain external representatives are
returns on knowledge sometimes live
flouted. We are a leading club,
representing a beautiful corporotation who
sometimes forget the basic courtesy in
failing
to
acknowledge
other
representatives of clubs. We have earned
enormous respect from the biker world
through our charitable initiatives and in
general by the image that we convey, it
would be a shame to waste all this because
some stare small clubs or turn their heads
at the sight of a member of 1%.
This is an important day for all of us the
opportunity to meet many of the brothers,
sharing good times again, take stock of the
past year and draw the outline of the next.
Those who already work for the
organization of such a weekend know it is
tedious and requires a lot of investment to
accommodate more than a hundred
members. Do not wait for the deadline for
reservations and try as much as possible to
make a combined attack by Chapter, it will
make it easier for our guests. The
opportunity also to fulfill your annual fee, I
remind you, has not moved since the
Chapter
France.
Respect is not imposes, it is earned by our
behavior and it is also important to keep!

Gilles – National Vice-President WFMC FF
Francky – National Secretary WFMC FF
Hello
sisters
and
brothers,
The season is well under
way, I hope you enjoyed
between siblings in your
Chapter.
I take advantage of the publication of this
bullinfo to remember a few rules: the file for
the official registration in the US of a new
member
must
be
complete
and
accompanied by the three checks, Chapter
Presidents are "guarantors" that the
applicant fulfilled all the conditions to return
to the club (WFMC commitment to and
compliance with our regulations).
The National Meeting shows its face. I hope
to see many of you for this good time with
our brothers of the chapter Euskadi Béarn
and to allow me to update my list of
members.
As you know I can make the connection with
the freeway magazine for all your events you
are organizing within your Chapters.

This year, I received incomplete applications
and lack of information about the candidate
... .. since when .... hangaround active
participation for the club, charity run and
attendance at AG ... .. ?????
Dom – National Treasurer WFMC FF
Hello everyone,
The National President gave a reminder of
some of absenteeism, and I completely
agree
with
that
...
..
Jackets are starting slowly to get rid of all
foreign patches to WFMC, now to meet our
statutes and regulations "are clear and
limpid" ... ..3 weekends a year devoted to
the club even more if you ...... have the time
and motivation !!!!!!
The season is well
underway, despite a fall
climate.
For my part, it is the sun that dominates
because it is the time of contributions.
What
more
would
a
treasurer?
I look forward to seeing you at the National
Meeting, and spend those moments of pure
intimacy
with
people
you
enjoy.
I stop here ...... the rest will be debated at
the end of the GA.
Pamper your mounts, watch out on the road
and share this happiness than riding with
pals.
See you soon for some, and very soon for
more
of
the
runs.
Summer begins...
And it will be a pleasure to meet you on the
runs that we have yet to do or the AG to
close the season.

RUN OCCITANIE
May 05, 06 and 07
To Naucelle (12) Chapter #136
A Run is beginning to take its brands to
become an important date in our calendar.
Nothing to say, all the ingredients are there,
a warm welcome, flawless organization
despite wind as powerful as the generosity
of our Occitan brothers who concocted an
atmosphere worthy of the finest Farias.
We were able, at the same time, honor
(usually May 1) our fallen brothers in the
company of Chapters "NANTES" "FIREHOUSE
CENTER" and "VETERANS SPDF" led by Fred
the founder president of the first chapter
"France" . A day that has brought us to a
contemplation to the sound of "Amazing
Grace" on the bagpipes and a wreath-laying
at war memorials in St Cyr Lapopie who
reminded us how important it was to take
advantage of us.

SOUTH VINTAGE FESTIVAL
13, 14 et 15 mai
à Trets (13) Chapter #157
Whit weekend in Trets, in Provencal land,
was the baptismal record of the witness
made in the Chapter Provence, the weather
had been warmer, the crowd of nearly
10,000 people for this wonderful festival,
now must in the region, allowed to approach
the threshold of 900 baptisms in favor of the
work of the pupils of firefighters.
Chapter reinforced by the Rhône-Alpes
brothers and the presence of national
presidents France and Switzerland and Vice
President France, has once again discover a
world previously unknown to a majority of
sympathetic visitors, all in a rustic and
bucolic.
To the delight of young and old alike, the
sound of "Big Twin" silenced, Scent of a
Woman, the cicadas for a noble cause, that
of toddlers of our fallen brothers in arms too
early.

RUN EUROPEAN GUNFIGHTERS MC
May 21 - Fréjus (83)
Wonderful evening Saturday, May 21 at the
Run of the European Gunfighters MC where
we could cross their brothers US, English,
Swiss, German, Belgian, Italian ...
representing over 200 members of the
security forces.
F.D.
It was an opportunity for them to formalize
two new chapters Marseille and French
Riviera and deliver the "full-patch" to a
dozen members, some gift given to the
chapter organizer in the middle of an
evening roundly organized and punctuated
by an excellent buffet and the inevitable
concert Rock.
I was accompanied by our "chief Follower"
Kamote proudly wearing its colors and
official Patch "FOLLOWER W & F", our
Sergeant national arms and Lolo, Road
Captain # 157. A beautiful evening for a
beautiful brotherhood that will, I think, to
expand as fast as a bullet struck off their
service weapons.

DONATION
Chapter PROVENCE
June 23 - Nice (06)
As every year, the chapter # 157 Provence
organized during the 157th day of the year
(or nearest) a family day to share, once will
not hurt, otherwise with those who are
abandoned
sometimes.
This year was a bit special because the
chapter celebrated its 10th anniversary and
its members wore a shirt "collector" for the
occasion.
A delegation of the chapter Provence went
to Nice in the cave of the Allianz Riviera
Stadium in the city of Nice, in order to
present a check for € 3,000 TO Alpes
Maritimes orphans attended by personalities
including Eric CIOTTI President department
riviera. In the absence of the President # 157
Ber, he was asked the National President to
perform this rebate check under the eyes of
two orphans and the widow of a firefighter
who died in service.

We saw all the meetings around the table of
Sons of Anarchy
We all saw the winners of the France rugby
championship brandish the Brennus Shield
So when you have the chance to know Elvis,
a Quebecois friend living along the lake
Pohénégamook and who does things like
that,

one can only be tempted to order and that
the work
We can see that Elvis had very strong links
with the Wind & Fire during his stays in
France, notably in 2010 and I had met him at
a run in Rochefort
A Nanar for Chapter "Atlantic Coast" is a
great buddy of Elvis and one for me,
but the two are still unique designs through
a tiny detail we will reveal if you ask us.
Nanar went to Quebec in February and he
has
brought
the
two
plates.
And April 9, I could take possession of the
mine during a weekend in Charente

And now she is prominently.
Thanks Elvis, Thanks Nanar, Thanks Alain &
