Well folks, this year is flying by already. By the time your reading this the ABATE District 1 swap meet and bike show will be a memory although it may have been a nightmare for some. It takes so much behind the scene work to bring it all together that we sometimes forget how much time is involved. I would like to take a moment to thank everyone that helped make it what it is... A huge special thanks goes out to Paul Matthews and Sherry Gambrell for their dedication and timeless support. Without their help we would not have had such an easy going time.

The riding season is right around the corner.Some of us are already riding. As you take a look at the district pages make a mental note of all that is going on and try to attend  some. You don't have to make all of them but at least try to attend another districts event. If we all pull together and attend each others event, then soon we will be traveling the whole state around just having fun. Stay safe and enjoy your ride.
