My spouse, LNC Rebecca Landick, USN (Ret), and I are completely retired in Virginia Beach, VA, and ride our Harley trikes whenever we can, particularly on long distance runs. We are both members of the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR), District 5, Hampton Roads; and, I am a prior Chapter Commander for the Southern Virginia chapter of the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association (Virginia 27-1). Additionally, we are members of and ride with the Mustangs Motorcycle Club and Tidewater Virginia HOG (Harley Owners Group) Chapter. We usually trailer our Cocker Spaniel in her mobile home behind my wife's bike. We are, indeed, enjoying life to the fullest, riding in all directions, depending on the weather!!

Worst Moment Relieving an OIC for cause. Combining travel claim processing to one central site at NS Norfolk for 10 Tidewater dets due to loss of billets. Spent most of my time justifying to Flag Officers why processing was now taking longer!
