"ABATE" is an acronym for American Bikers Active Toward Education
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. Anyone that is interested in preserving their right to ride is welcome. And while we are a non-profit organization, we are not a charity. We are affiliated with national rights groups like the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA), the Motorcycle Riders Foundation (MRF) and the National Coalition of Motorcyclists (NCOM).
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 Preventing unfair legislation from becoming law is easier than fighting to get the law repealed.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 motorcyclists are goals of ABATE. We are not against the wearing of helmets, and we encourage all riders to ride safely. An informed and educated rider is a safer rider. Through your local District's ABATE, we can unite in brotherhood and sisterhood to safeguard our rights and still remain individuals with differing views.
We work hard on your behalf to keep motorcyclists, members, and the public informed. To promote safe riding habits, and to encourage favorable legislation for motorcyclists. These are accomplished through a monthly newsletter, safety education programs designed to help prevent fatal and personal injury accidents and lobbying at the State Legislature.
