ABATE is composed of motorcyclists from all areas of the State, from all walks of life, and who ride all makes of bikes. ABATE is not a club, it is a politically active organization working on motorcyclist's rights. We are affiliated with national rights groups like the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA), the Motorcycle Riders Foundation (MRF)
Our main focus is to keep motorcycle legislation in its proper perspective. Many restrictive laws are enacted by uninformed legislators. ABATE's goal is to keep our lawmakers informed of our members collective position on Motorcycle related legislation. Preventing unfair legislation from becoming law is easier than fighting to get the law repealed.
Rider education and public awareness of motorcyclist are goals of ABATE. We are not against the wearing of helmets. We believe in "Freedom of Choice" and we encourage all riders to ride safely. An informed and educated rider is a safer rider. rider education is proven to prevent accidents and save lives.
ABATE is involved in community service through programs like "Adopt a Highway" and "Adopt a Stream". We also sponsor several State and District charity events throughout the year.
