Special Thanks & Contributors
First and foremost we would like to express our sincere thanks to our advertisers
and sponsors without whom this magazine could not exist. To all of our faithful
readers who provide us with their stories and information every month. Please
keep them coming! Thanks to our facebook followers that post the cool pictures.
To all of our contributors that help make all of our special photo shoots and
charitable events a success. And a special shout out of love to our beautiful
Louisiana Ladies that model for us every month for our readers viewing
pleasure! Your grace, beauty, style and class are priceless to our magazine!
Letter from the Publishers
The publishers and staff would like to wish you a very Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Year! While you are going through
your Christmas list, please consider shopping, eating, and
drinking in the small businesses featured in this issue. This
magazine has been brought to you at NO charge all of these
years because of the support of the biker community to the
sponsors featured within these pages! Check out the motorcycle
friendly directory for all of the businesses that support the biker
community and visit them during this holiday season!
We look forward to the 2018 Louisiana (and now including
Mississippi) Thunder Run. We will be adding many more
restaurants, watering holes, dealerships, and shops that will be
participating during next year’s Thunder Run beginning in March.
Stay tuned to our new website, www.thunderroadslams.com and
our face book pages where we will be making announcements
and adding locations. We have two face book pages. Thunder
Roads Louisiana/Miss. And Louisiana/Miss Thunder Run.
Make sure if you already have a Thunder Run card that you do
not throw them away as they never expire, and use them for
discounts during the holidays and in the months of December,
January, and February.
Stay tuned to our January 2018 issue as we have some new and
exciting changes coming!
Until next time…Remember, where there are bikes, there is
going to be thunder!
Andrew and Renee
R.I.P. to all our brothers and sisters who lost the ride.
Cover Story
When we were deciding on
a cover for our December
issue, the obvious choice was
Cassidy. Her beauty, charm,
and soft features were the
perfect match for Christmas.
Cassidy has been featured on
our March 2017 cover, which
our readers overwhelmingly
voted in for us to submit to
our National office for Cover
of The Year. Congratulations
to Cassidy and our graphic
designer and photographer Clarke Jones and Donna Prosperie!
A special thank you to Keith and Amanda, for allowing us to
shoot the cover at their club, The Speak Easy Bar and Grill in
Kenner. Thanks to Bradley Navas for always watching out, and
to our director Andrew Fehn for the creative idea for the shoot.
Big thank you to Rocky Wattigney for allowing us to feature your
beautiful custom built Harley on this cover!
