East Coast Helmet Law Protest!   May 18, 2008
On your way back from Myrtle Beach Bike Week, stop in at South of the Border, in Dillon SC, which is the northernmost exit off I-95 of South Carolina, to protest helmet laws and participate in a freedom ride. Last year, there were only a couple dozen freedom fighters from SC, NC, and VA who joined us, but we had such a good time that we've been looking forward to the next one all year!
Here's the ritual, so you will know it every year:
The East Coast Freedom Ride is always the Sunday of the last weekend of Myrtle Beach Bike Week.
We always put our kickstands up at 11am.
If you want to wear a helmet and ride in support of those who choose, you are VERY WELCOME to join us. We do not protest the device. We protest the law which is unconstitutional and does not allow our right to choose.
In 2007, groups represented included ABATE of SC, ABATE of VA, and BOLT of the Carolinas.

WNC Freedom Ride
Western North Carolina Freedom Ride from Bumcombe County Courthouse in Asheville to the Hendersonville County Courthouse. This is to call attention to the helmet law, and to continue our freedom call, “Let those who ride decide.”
"The government cannot make any objective standards without taking on liability, and since they are expressly forbidden from taking on liability, they can never make an objective standard for helmets. Without an objective standard, it all becomes ad hoc and arbitrary. Ad hoc and arbitrary is the foundation of vague law. Vague law is unconstitutional. Bye."    Richard Quigley
