Title: very Important U.S. House bill needs our support

Follow the link below and read about House Bill H.R. 904. We need to tell our congressmen and women that we will not stand for this type of discrimination against motorcycle riders.

Is this really just an excuse to pull over large gangs of riders heading to Bike Week or Sturgis?

I do have a question for folks - seems quite a few that ride are also
supporters of helmet laws - so this is just a natural move in that
direction to also inspect your helmet for DOT rating, check your tires,
measure the exhaust noise, handle bar height, and such to make
you safe instead of leaving it to personal responsibility to maintain
the margin of saftey we accept.

So how are these check points any different than helmet laws ?

Helmet laws are a codified requirement. Checkpoints are a detainment and interruption. They stop and detain people who have violated no law.

That said, I favor helmets, and oppose helmet laws. This crap above? I will not be spending any money in Georgia any time soon...
