ATTN ALL NOR-CAL MOTORCYCLISTS - ACTION CALL

[Skybarney]

Hi Everyone!  Just tonight it came to my attention that there is a new bill proposed that few of us will like.  Apparently California has a bill on the table that proposes that ALL motorcyclists must wear a neon green vest at all times when on the bike.

Personally, this pisses me off.  It is damn hot here in The Valley during the summer and a vest will do nothing other than block the airflow to my perforated jacket.  I am of the camp that we could ride a giant blinking red light and still be invisible to cagers.

In a show of numbers there is a large ride-in planned at the State Capitol on January 11th.  

I am also not a fan of the helmet laws (have always worn one regardless) as I dislike having my safety regulated by Government.  I would dislike riding a neon green vinyl vest even more!

My friends and I will be attending.  As further inducement I will buy any member of this board that attends a beer.  Just let me know you are coming and we will section off a Duc pond.

You've made your announcement.

We don't do politics here.

I'm going to leave this up because of the informational aspect, but I'm locking it.

I really don't give a rats ass about your thoughts on government.
