The ABATE case was lost regarding the MOTORCYCLE ONLY ROADBLOCKS performed by the NYS Police. But the fight isn't over. The next step is to appeal the decision but that will take a lot of money and time. New York State Senator John Flanagan is hosting a series of Town Hall meetings so that residents can share their views and concerns about NYS issues.
Members of LI ABATE will be attending, and are urging ALL riders who can, to attend the meeting scheduled to be held at 7:00pm on Thursday, February 2nd at the Middle Country Public Library, 101 Eastwood Blvd. Centereach. (Located directly behind Wal-Mart on RT 25 in Centereach) We should show up in force as a UNITED group of residents who are being unfairly singled out and discriminated against simply because we choose to ride a motorcycle. We MUST do it respectfully, credibly and level headed. We aren’t going to tie up the meeting with a lot of speakers. We will only have a few speakers so that our issue is clear to the Senator, but it is very important that we have many riders in attendance so that it is clear that we are speaking for a large, organized group that cares about being discriminated against. Mitch Proner of Proner & Proner who filed the lawsuit will be our prime speaker. No one knows the issue any better than him. He is also a great, credible speaker who will be able to present our case very well. Please tell your friends to join us also.
