Helmet Law Info

The attached Group Riding Guidelines were sent to me and I am sharing them with all of you.
 
There has been much discussion (and a couple of traffic tickets) concerning the newly adopted Washington State Motorcycle Helmet Law (Effective July 26, 2009).  I have provided a very informative website link from the Biker Friendly Bar (Lawyers not alcohol) below.  It contains the actual words of the law and it even has explanations and pictures.   I hope this provides you with the most current information concerning legal motorcycle helmets in Washington State:
 


Clark Co Fair, God Mobile


If you are interested in working in the God Mobile at the Clark Co Fair this year, Tad could use the help. Free tickets & parking. You can call him at 903-8696

Fwd: CMA Ride



This is another event for Sept. that would be good for us all to go on. So mark your Calendar.

----------------------------

Hello Sheila and Carl.
On September 11th (Friday) we are having a free motorcycle run around Clark County to honor and remember fire fighters and their families and would like to invite you and your entire group to participate. We will be visiting 6 major fire stations around the county and making a presentation to each fire station to thank them for their service. Do you think that your members could provide a prayer of remberance at each location? Rich Schlalos is doing the final service at the end, which will be a candlelight vigil and memorial service, but I think that a prayer at each station would be appropriate. Let me know what you think. I have attached a flyer so you can read more about the event.
Best Regards,
Ron Fryer, President
