Lee & Sandy Fortier

I’m Lee Fortier, and I am retired from both the Navy (22 yrs) and The Johns Hopkins University (21 yrs).  My co-rider Sandy is a retired CPA (20 yrs), and has been a professional Pastry Chef for the last 4 years.  Now, we are both finally “fully retired” (except for multiple volunteer activities). 

            First motorcycle was a 1968 Moto Guzi (100cc) that I rode while stationed in Gaeta, Italy from 1970-1972.  It was bright red with chrome fenders.   From 1995-1999, I rode a Honda GL-1000 that I restored from the ground up.  I Traded the GL-1000 for a 1989 Yamaha Venture Royale that we rode from 2000-2002.  Next came a Harley Sportster 1200 for a year, but that was quickly sold when we discovered the River City Wings and bought a brand new, 2003 Black Honda GoldWing GL-1800 that we have so far ridden for 36,000+ miles.

            Lee & Sandy are former NC-E2 Chapter Educators, and N.C. Educators of the Year for 2006.  Lee is a Master Tour Rider (Level-IV), and Sandy is a Level-III Rider and Co-Ride Captain.  Lee is currently a GWRRA Certified Seminar and Leadership Instructor, and he is also a Certified Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) Instructor.

Activities Coordinators

Harriett & Malcolm Marquit

     I learned to ride in the mountains of New Hampshire, taught to ride by my brother Larry, and his second wife, who was a licensed instructor in Ohio, and taught the Ohio state police to ride.

     Living in NYC at the time I kept my bike in a parking garage, and used it to get bagels and Chinese food from Chinatown. That bike was eventually stolen on a Sunday, right in front of my apartment house.  It was a 1977 1100 Suzuki GL fully dressed, a gem

     In 1985 Harriet and I bought a summerhouse in the Pocono Mountains of Pa, and kept our bike there.

I was a member of the Pocono Riders Club, and a member, and still am, of the “Retreads”, an international organization; in fact it is my 27^th year of membership.  Each year at the Pa. Rally I lead tours around the Amish country, including a tour driving over 16 covered bridges in one day.

In 2003 Harriet and I moved to Hertford, where we joined the GWRRA, a group of great riders as well a grand organization to be a part of.  Thank you all for having us.

Newsletter Editor & Webmaster

Pat Boyce

Never say I won't accept a challenge.  It is my hope to furnish you with a "newsy" newsletter and a website that the Chapter can be proud of and visit frequently for information about member celebrations, chapter rides and events.  MC & I have ridden cross country two times with friends and we plan to have many more adventures.
