MRF Report
May 2023

Happy May 2023 !

    Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter with their family and hopefully got a small amount of riding for April. The middle of April my friend (BJ) and I traveled over to Region 7 and enjoyed a meet & greet at the local American Legion hall in Bradner, Ohio. Everyone was so nice and listened to my presentation. I REALLY appreciate that!!! It was my first time presenting my power point presentation and it worked! Thank goodness. I met a lot of nice people and thanks again to Larry Morgan for inviting me.

    If you would like me to attend your meeting and do a presentation to your members drop me a line. We must support one another.

If you are an Abate member you should be an MRF member.
    I know it costs money but that is how we can get things done.

    Bikers on the Beltway is coming up in 2 weeks. Hopefully I can get there next year!

    I was so excited to be able to write an article for the American Biker Journal which comes to you in either digital format or hard copy every other month. They have a place for each state to write a bit about what is going on in that state etc. from the SMRO's point of view. Check my article out, it's out now !!!!!!!!!

MRF Report
April 2023

Happy April 2023!

    As I am writing this newsletter, the weather today is going to be 70 and I am getting the itch to go riding. In March I attended the Yankee Lake Swap Meet and appreciated those who took the time to talk with me but again the theme was most people walked on by. A lot of people stopped to read the posters and you could see them nodding their heads in agreement but then they turned and walked away. I even got 1.00-dollar donation from a sweet young girl.

    Talking with TJ he said to me it's important to talk to people and if you get a membership out of it that is icing on the cake. I'll try to remember that.

    I look forward to visiting all the Region Meetings and hopefully can attend more events as well. Region 7 invited me on the 16th, so I will be there. Thanks, Larry Morgan, for inviting me to further the cause we all believe in.

    If you would like me to attend your meeting and do a presentation to your members drop me a line. We must support one another. If you are an Abate member you should be an MRF member. I know it cost money but that is how we can get things done.

    From the Motorcycle Instructor part of me: Remember if you are getting back on your bikes for the first time this season, to look over them well and practice your quick stops etc. before heading out. Give you and your girl a shake down, so neither of you break down!

MRF Report
March 2023

Happy March 2023!

    I was so busy in February; it just flew by. Loved the weather with no snow on the ground. That is sure an oddity. Saw lots of bikes out on warmer days, just remember they are not looking for you, so you must be extra careful.

    February started out with our Abate of Ohio State Seminar. Then the following weekend I was in Lima Ohio for the big swap meet over there. About 3000 people attended and I got to talk to a lot of people, but same story. Even got to have dinner with the Chairman of the Board Mike Stock and his lovely wife Kay plus the infamous Ed Schetter even joined us. We had a great time at Tony's in Findlay. Great place to eat if you are ever in the area! Thanks Mike, Kay, and Ed for showing Bob and I a great time!!!!

    February 19th, I had my booth at the Dusty Chrome Akron (Summit County) swap meet. Talked to people but most just walked right on by. I did get 2 Abate of Ohio renewals though so that is always a plus!

    With both of these swap meets one theme was continuing, obviously no one cares about their rights! They all just walk by. Well you WILL care when all your rights are taken away.

    I did get to send out letters to 13 members who have been lapsed in their membership, would love to hear from these great people!

    News from the MRFA&E In February: Young Activist 2023 Scholarship You can nominate a Young Activist in your SMRO that is under 30 years old. I will be talking about this in our upcoming State Board Meeting March 11th, so stay tuned to your Region!

MRF Report
February 2023

Happy February 2023!

    Where did January go? The older you get the faster time goes by, as my mother told me. She was correct!

    So, what went on in January 2023? I attended the Stark County Swap Meet at the Stark County Fairgrounds. It was not attended well but I did get to speak to some people and hand out applications to join the MRF. Hopefully I got the word out.

    We just wrapped up the 2023 Abate of Ohio Seminar. Always have fun with friends at this event and hopefully everyone learns something as well. I took off my Abate hat and put on my Motorcycle Ohio hat to lead a presentation regarding the MORE program. I think it went well and everyone learned something.

    Then put my MRF hat on to listen to my great friend Jay Jackson give his MRF presentation. He went over how MRF is leading into 2023, the hardships that all of us bikers face, such as profiling. Up to this letter I have never been "profiled" but it is out there and we all need to watch out for it. You can support the MRF by joining the fight !!!!

    As I finish this letter to you all, I am gearing up to attend the Lima Swap Meet February 12th and then onto the Dusty Chrome swap meet in Akron on February 19th. Both are normally well attended.

    Please extend a welcome to the newest MRF Members:

Chris Winchester,   Mike Korns Jr,   Bob Renicker, and Norm & Donna Sam.

MRF Report
January 2023

Happy January 2023!

    This month I want to introduce myself as your 2023 State of Ohio MRF Rep. My name is Sherry Hill and I hail from Stark County Abate Region 8. Received my endorsement to ride thru the MSF program in 1992 down in Florida. Back then it was more of a rarity as a woman rider. While I did not grow up on a bike, I learned at 13 that I really enjoyed riding, albeit on the back of a bike till 1992. My first bike was an old, beat-up powder blue 650 Yamaha and after that I stuck with Yamaha's till I moved back to Ohio in 1997 and met the man I am still with today. He had Harley's but had grown up with metrics as well. So, over the 25 years we've been together our "collection" has grown. I am the proud owner of 4 of them in our stable. Two Harleys and two Yamaha's (went back to my original love). Each one brings its own personality and I enjoy that immensely. It is a passion that both he and I share, and I enjoy nothing more than just he and I out for a ride.

    I am a past Safety & Education Officer for my region and currently I am an Instructor for Motorcycle Ohio of which this will be my 9th year teaching. I retired from teaching Harley Davidson, just too many irons in the fire for me.

    That leads me to why I am writing this letter to you. I felt that while teaching how to ride a motorcycle and my involvement in my Region I am just not making enough of a difference. Then last Fall we were told of the opening for the State MRF (Motorcycle Rights Foundation) position. I had to fill out an application and go in front of the Board of Abate of Ohio. Luckily, they all think that I can do a good job and that is what I am going to attempt to do. With all your help we need to continue to support Abate of Ohio (State & Regional) but along with that we need to support the MRF which is your National voice in Washington D.C.

    I am gearing up to go to swap meets and attend region meetings across the State of Ohio as well as just get out there on Poker Runs etc. to spread the good word about the MRF.

    Every month I will write telling you what the MRF & I have been doing. Call me, drop me an email if you want any information and join the MRF for just $35 a year. You can join as an individual, group, etc. Just ask me!

    YOUR VOICE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE, TOGETHER WE CAN INIATE CHANGE!!!!!!!

    Hopefully I will see all of you at the upcoming Abate of Ohio Seminar!!!!!!

    Till February....
