Newsletters and such

For all those who subscribe to the news paper and have emails, I sent out some newsletters.

I am just getting used to the new administration tools so I apologize if you got more than one!

Advertisers are a key ingredient to why we have this monster web site with so many tools.
Because of them there are now forums, chat rooms, free photo galleries, free on line classifieds - you get the idea!

Because so many web users are unhappy with their current providers we decided to develop www.beltdrivebetty.com into our very own, Canadian Content Groups site.

You can talk with potential members for your riding club or web based group or you can host your group here. Period. The choice is yours and we are NOT trying to step on any ones toes.

We don't want to take over your groups or have any control over them, we merely want to provide our membership with every possible way to communicate their club or group message.

When you sign up as a member/subscriber to the paper, we want to know the group/s you ride with so that we can associate the right avatar with your membership.

We want to celebrate the diversity of the riding community and make sure every rider is hooked up with the information that they want and need.

We want to be your clearinghouse of information for all things riding in Canada.

Your subscription to the Busted Knuckle at www.bustedknucklenews.com
automatically gives you access to all of the member only tools on both web sites.

The free 3rd Birthday Celebration On line subscriptions end soon.

Just a note to all who have gotten a free subscription, I will be emailing everyone to get your mailing addresses and contact information so that we can send out your membership cards.

Your membership cards are your passport to savings so use them well!

Talk to you all soon....

Shaping the future for women who ride.....

Figured this was worth forwarding, alot of us like survey results but very seldom have the chance to help influence them.

A roller coaster week.

This week has been maddening, delightful, sad and happy. It's really a roller coaster ride this life we live.

My uncle passed away this week at 56 years old. He'd battled with cancer for the better part of 2 years. The last few months have been awful for him and his family and friends. For a number of reasons I can't attend the funeral, but I can tell you I loved, respected and admired the man.

I'm sad yet releived. His sufferring is finally over. RIP Emil Cyr Poitras.

One of the happier things that happened was my daughter and i went for an afternoon at the Mirage Salon and Spa. For a Christmas present my wonderful husband had bought us a mother and daughter manicure and pedicure with a massage. What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. I spend so many hours at the computer I forgot what it was like to go out of doors!

Thank you Mark - Nicky and I had a great afternoon.

Two more days and I should finally be done merging and rebuilding my books and information. If all goes well new subscriber cards should be out in the mail this week! I have been working on them for about 13 hours a day for the last two weeks, I am so close to being done I can taste it!

Yes, our lives are all a giant roller coaster ride and I am learning that for every low there is a high and for every high, a low.

I hope you all have a great weekend.
