 I started motorcycling in 1967 when I got my first dirt bike, it was a Yamaha 360, stripped it down and went motorcross racing. In 1971 I started selling motorcycles for a dealer in Columbia, the next year I was general manager for Suzuki City in Columbia.  If I remember correctly I got chased by the Highway Patrol so much that in 1973 I became a member of the South Carolina Highway Patrol. It was fun in the 70's.  In 1983 I joined the USC Police Dept. and advanced thru the ranks to Captain and Inspector. During that time there were a lot of different jobs, but the best of all was in 1989 when I took over the Carolina Coliseum and Koger Center. I was still with the PD but I managed security for all of the events at the two facilities. A lot of great  shows, concerts and basketball games and all of the Williams-Brice stadium concerts.  Retired from the state in Oct.05, I am now with the Richland County Sherriff's Dept. as a firearms and driving instructor.  I started with the Blue Knights sc 1 in the beginning when the chapter was formed and there have been a lot  of great times over 20 years with all of the Blue Knight members.  This is the best organization for motorcycle riding with your friends and other members of law enforcement.  No matter where you go with the Blue Knights everybody is your friend.......

REMEMBER,  YOU ARE A BLUE KNIGHT,  "RIDE WITH PRIDE"
