Where to start, since we last
left you we have been all over
the state and been to many
parties & fundraisers. We also
went to celebrate L.A.M.A. V.P.,
Vikingo’s 50th B-Day
down at the L.A.M.A. clubhouse.
Yes, he’s 50 now and don’t look
a day over 60.
The food looked great, and
his lady put on a spread that
was out standing. The bad thing
was, I promised to be at
Teamster Horsemen’s that night
also, to eat at their EVERY
FRIDAY NIGHT $2.00 all you can
eat pasta night. So, off we
went (Olga and me) to see if
Hector really could cook as good
as he professed….DAMN it was
good. I think that night he did
about 20 pounds of pasta….YES I
SAID 20 Lbs of pasta, but the
best was the gravy he made. He
used neck bones, spareribs and
ground beef. I showed them that
I was no stranger when it came
to eating neck bones, yep when I
was done all you could see was
bone. Kim (Harley Charlie’s
wife & my cousin) got an
education in the art of eating
neck bones, too.
We also had our 10th
annual LSD ride and again we
were back at Joe’s on Weed St.
They were great hosts as usual
and if you’re looking to spend
some of that hard earned cash I
suggest you pay them a visit.
We should always support the
businesses that support us. Now
Hog’s & Honey’s should probably
change their name to Honeys &
Money’s.…WHY???? We tried for
over a month to contact them to
try our event with them and they
seem only to be interested in
our money and not our bikes or
have anything to do with us
outside of us coming down to
drop $$$$.
A special thank you needs to
go out to George “Odd Job” Gora
for putting this ride together
and has been doing it since day
1. Thanks for all you do “Odd
Job”.
The TV Show started on the
last Tuesday in September this
time and we will have an extra
show this quarter. I have Doc
Mark scheduled to be our first
guest and his run is the very
next weekend.
In this edition of the
newsletter you are going to read
an article regarding
“Motorcycle’s Seized.” Before
you go grab the pitch forks and
torches, we were on top of it.
In speaking with the State
Police we found that:
1) YES, it was a motorcycle
ONLY stop. Just
like the “Click it or Ticket”
stops they have for cars.
2) They were looking for
proper license classifications,
“L or M.”
Remember, if you don’t have
the proper classification, YOU
SHOULD NOT BE
RIDING A MOTORCYCLE. A.B.A.T.E.
does not condone illegal actions
PERIOD!
3) They were checking for
insurance. And YES, you NEED to
be insured.
4)
If you did not have the right
class license your bike was
towed, unless someone there
(properly licensed of course)
could take your bike right home
for ya.
If you had any of the lesser
violations you were merely
ticketed and sent on your way.
Before you ask, they also
conduct these traffic safety
stops for cars only, trucks only
and other vehicle specific
stops. So to sum it up, YES,
they were singling out
motorcycles, this time. Next
time it will be cars, and then
it will be only trucks. So what
ever you drive, always be
prepared.
I hope I didn’t leave
anything out and THANK YOU
Juanita for waiting for the
article until I got an answer,
you’re so crazy. ;) Elections
are coming up so if you want to
step up, let us know.
Ride Free, Safe & Unrestricted
