Letter From The President

The December state meeting was a huge success.  The board’s thanks go out to Black Creek Chapter and the great job they did.  Abate of Florida is a Motorcycle Rights Organization and it was proved at the meeting when the Attorney General Bill McCollum who is running for Governor of Florida came to the meeting.  He spoke in support of many of our issues and said I quote “Abate will have an open door policy with me”.  We made sure that was on tape.  Then Former Speaker of the House Marco Rubio who is running for the United States Senate spoke.  He also spoke in support of our issues and is a dynamic young politician who will go far.  We will try and have candidates at every meeting leading up to the November election to speak to the members.  I believe our members got a lot out of hearing these candidates and then talking to them about situations in our state.  It is important that everyone hears as many candidates speak and take back that information to their chapters and the people who support us.  Times change fast in politics and we need to keep pace and change with them.

 

In April we will be having our 15th Freedom Right’s Rally.  Next to Bike Week it is our biggest event of the year as an organization.  If you believe in your rights and want to do something about them then come to Tallahassee and ride with us.  Speak to your representatives and senators about what you want done.  Tell them you want a better Florida not only for yourself but your family too.

 

Bike Week is coming fast and we will need help at the campground.  People are needed for security the cook shack and the beverage tent.  You can earn free camping and meals for helping out and you will help support the cause.  Come out and join your brothers and sisters who already support it and sit back and drink a beverage with them.

 

The legislative session will be starting the first week of March and we will again be pushing for stiffer penalties for motorists who run over us.  The attorney Genera and one of the candidates who is running for Attorney General both support our efforts and have pledged their support for our cause.  That’s a good start but no we must finish our mission.

 

The next sate meeting is in February until them Ride Safe and Free!!!
