 (5-5-13)   May Is Motorcycle Awareness Month, I hope you were able to join us for the Parade from the A.D. Farrow North Star Dealership in Sunbury Ohio, to the State Capitol Building in Downtown Columbus, on May 4th, for the reading of Governor Kasich Proclamation and the list of the rest of the Motorcycle Awareness Proclamations gathered by our Members from all over the Great State of Ohio.

  (5-5-13)   I wonder how the government will overreact to this. Many of you have heard me say that the government has to speeds: slow and knee jerk reaction.

  (5-5-13)   We are also working on permitting non-audio hearing protection to be legal while operating a motor vehicle.

This offense carries a 2 point penalty on the driver’s license..........( Read more )

 (5-5-12)   When this magazine comes out we will all be at the State Awareness Rally. This rally kicks off May as Motorcycle Awareness Month.
Everyone needs to get their “Look Twice Save A Life” signs out of the garage and put them in your yard. If you don’t have one or if yours is in bad shape, get a new one. Also make sure the yellow “Look Out For Motorcycles” magnet is on the back of your car......... ( Read more )

Tired of sitting on your bike at Red Lights
that won't turn GREEN ????
    To enlist the help of Ohio’s motorcyclists, ODOT set up a special phone number & E-mail for motorcyclists for reporting problem intersections. When reports come in, ODOT will notifiy signal owners ( often a city or county ) about the situation and offer recommendations for improvement.
