Ride
to Lobby Day in Harrisburg included Steen, Greg Ritter, Curt Stump, Keith
Muhlbauer from CLR, 53 total attended from around the state; One of the bills
addressed at Lobby Day, HB242 re: conversion kits now has 116 co-sponsors and
is already in front of the Transportation Cmt; HB590 would allow MCs to pass
through a red light signal that did not change after the rider has waited a
“reasonable” amount of time, still awaiting passage; HB1189 would allow
exemption of liability for locations/businesses that host the State
Motorcycle Safety Program on their property, this bill is in limbo, tied down
with many amendments, Radar-CPIST (Tech School) will continue to host the
course; Loud pipes save lives but annoy residents, please be respectful |

Meeting
time/location-various opinions expressed regarding pros and cons of Wednesday
vs. Saturday meeting times, including bike nights, work schedules,
after-meeting rides; because June is Hazen a 3rd Saturday meeting
would need to be moved so it will stay the 2nd Wednesday, July is
the Bike Show so the meeting will be on the day of the Bike Show, July
24;Motion made by Hal to have the meetings for Aug and Sept the 3rd
Saturday at the CH Legion, seconded by MoonDog, motion failed; motion made by
Steen to keep the meetings the 2nd Wed of the month throughout the
year with the exception of special events such as Octoberfest, Hazen, Bike
