There's a virus that has infected the computers of Mike Aldea and Chris Baum.  It makes posts encouraging people to vote for the incorrect OtP candidate.  The correct name is

COG Nation,

Let me introduce myself a little to the membership and supports who are going to the vote for this year's "OTP". I have been a long time supporter of the "OTP"!!!  I have helped many of the GTR-EU riders as they have traveled to the USA to attend the COG National Rally over the years.  One of my goals is share my home, family and our common love for riding motorcycles with our GTR-EU friends. We have open up our home and have invited our GTR-EU riders to be part of our extended family while staying with us.  We have developed lifetime friendships and my two small kids often ask when are the next motorcycle riders going to visit. It has become part of our family tradition to host "OTP" riders whenever possible.  Maybe, one day I will get the chance to travel "over the pond" and see my EU friends and have a chance to ride in their home lands and get to meet their families!!

Thank you for letting me have a chance to share my passion for the "OTP" and my love of riding motorcycles!

Chris Baum

Two more days to make your choice!  I encourage you to send someone who is an experienced rider of curvy roads.  We must make a good impression on our European brethren.  If allowed an opportunity, I will also cook some southern style food and make them all wish they could come back with me.  I will do my very best to represent COG as the finest motorcycle club in the galaxy, and as an asteroid miner I feel qualified to do that.
  Knowing what you know now, do COG a favor and cast your vote to send

Charlie Gary OtP


Please, help us end this madness by voting.  I don't know how much more outrageous I can get with campaign promises.
