The M. E. A. T. is rolling a little empty

by Rebel

Hello All! I know throughout this newsletter you are reading articles on how Marlene (Auntie ABATE) had made a HUGE impact in ABATE of WI in all the past years she was a part of it. YES, in the short time I knew Marlene, she had made an impact with me as well. We all have our stories and memories of days gone by with Marlene and she will be truly missed! For me, she always gave me the inspiration (in her unique kinda way} to “think outside the box” and strive to make ABATE of WI the best it could be! I will always remember her at every ABATE event I attend for years to come! We can ALL ride a little easier/safer knowing Marlene is looking down on our organization. She was “called home” way too early……God must have needed someone to look after all the bikers that went before her.

On a lighter note, THANK YOU to ALL that attended the 1^st Annual “Freedom Rally Ride & Convoy” in WI Rapids! Attendance was a little lighter than expected BUT WAS SUCCESSFUL! National recording group “Confederate Railroad” rocked the huge tent! MARK YOUR CALENDARS: AUG 23,24.25 2019 we will do it all over again and we want everybody to party with us!

I am writing this article just before loading up for the annual Tomahawk Fall Ride. I always enjoy seeing all who stop by the ABATE tent and say “Hi”! The weather is supposed to be great for a change……no snow in the forecast! LOL! Stay safe while getting in some of Wisconsin’s great fall riding!

Until next time, remember life is short. Call a friend and go for a ride. They may not be there tomorrow!
