Chapter Meeting Thursday, June 11th. 7pm at TR'S Place, in Belleville. I have detailed Legislative news not privy to the general public yet. Great news for ABATE and all motorcyclists. Going to be hot & muggy so the back room at TR'S is a great place to hang out! I hope to see a good crowd. Please Like, comment, and share this post.

What an awesome turnout for our 35th Anniversary Ride yesterday. We appreciate everyone that came out and celebrated with us and made it a Ride to remember. RiverRat said he counted 49 motorcycles and around a dozen jeeps and trucks. Thanks to TR'S Place, Driftwood Inn, TimeOut Bar, The Garden, Billy Bob's, and The Bailout Tavern for their donations and allowing us to use them as a stop. A huge shout out to Just Renee's in Lenzburg for hosting us at the end of the approximately 120 mile ride and all the food she provided. I told her to expect 30 to 40 and it turned out at the end to be about 75 people there. Thank you to everyone involved in making it a Ride to remember.

TOMORROW! Saturday is our Anniversary Ride. We call it our Free Ride as we celebrate the freedoms our members and past members have secured for all motorcyclists throughout the state. No charge, no poker hands or anything like that. But, we will have a 50/50 and the state bike raffle tickets there to purchase. All the stops are donating an attendance prize. You can make all six stops for a total of 116 miles or you can skip a stop if you get preoccupied with some good company at your favorite one. Just be at Renee's by 6pm for the drawings. She is putting out the pulled pork at 5pm. See you there!

Meeting tonight, Thursday, April 9th. 7pm @ TR's Place, Belleville. Last meeting before our Anniversary Ride May 9th. We call it The Free Ride because we are celebrating the freedoms we enjoy because of ABATE Of Illinois and our sacrifices we the members have made over the years. This Ride is open to all riders, jeeps, cars and trucks. Its a 116 mile ride this year with five stops. That gives us one hour between each stop and if you fall behind just skip a stop, no big deal as long as you are at Just Renee's at 6pm for the drawing.
