| ABATE 1 Promotes Motorcycle Safety Month with advertisements on CAT buses |
By Ellie Wilson
As most of you know May is officially
Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month in
Arkansas as proclaimed by Governor
Mike Beebe. There are many people
working to make people more aware of
the number of motorcyclist and the
safety issues involved with sharing the
road with motorcycles.
ABATE #1 took things a step further
by purchasing advertising on two CAT
buses promoting motorcycle
awareness and safety. The message
will not only be seen in the month of
May but into June, July and August.
After the success of advertising the
ABATE #1 Swap Meet on buses Sherry
Gambrell stated that it was a natural to
place these new messages on buses
as well.
Tuesday May 6th was an important
day for ABATE #1 and motorcyclist in
Arkansas as the “public unveiling” of
the buses with the biker message were
publicly acknowledged. Wally Brennan,
ABATE #1 President, Rodney Farley,
ABATE State Chairman, Smokey Joe
Mesenheimer, Tom & Sherry Weewer
with Doug & Sherry Gambrell all
attended the event.
As you know any motorcycle event
depends on the weather and the
weather did not cooperate. While the
attendees were enthusiastic the
anticipated crowd was a little thinner
than hoped for. The spirits of those in
attendance were not damped by the
rain. Check out the photos of the event
in our gallery.
All motorcyclists raise awareness
when we ride, when we talk to others
about our motorcycles and our
adventures. Be sure and mention the
signs on the buses to others so they
can not only look out for motorcycles
but for the signs as well.
Please thank those at ABATE #1 for
taking the time and funds to help get
the word out.
