THE IRONHORSE ROUNDUP ON MAY 4TH HAS BEEN CANCELED-- GRAYSLAKE MAYOR TIM PERRY HAD THE PERMIT CANCELED ON FRI. MAY 2 AT 4:41 PM BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBLE THREAT TO THE HEALTH AND PUBLIC SAFETY TO THOSE ATTENDING THE EVENT AND THE PEOPLE OF GRAYSLAKE. THIS SEEMS MORE LIKE DISCRIMINATION AGAINST MOTORCYCLES! IF YOU WISH TO CONTACT THE MAYOR WITH YOUR CONCERNS, THE NUMBER IS 847-223-8515, OR HIS DIRECT LINE, 847-986-3213. FOR MORE INFO, CLICK HERE.

On March 8TH a group of us went to an Accident Scene Management class at Lamb's Farm in Libertyville, IL. Thanks to Pat and Terry for putting on a great hands on class with lots of information that every biker on the road should know. Ther are pics in the photo gallery. They have more classes coming up that only cost $25 per person because Allstate Insurance is paying for half. If you are interested, check the links page for more details.
Our March 1ST Cabin Fever Party was a great success! We just want to thank all our members,members from other chapters, the band, Iron Justice, and Rolling Thunder for coming out and making this a great event. It seemed that everyone there had a good time. Check out the photo gallery.
Let's have a great 2008 at Northern Illinois ABATE!
