or fine any motorcycle in town that did not have an

Legislative News:
2010 Session started January 5th. Senator Tassoni
spoke with Peter Gensel, our rep, and stated he wanted to
submit a new noise bill that RIMA could support. Our
hope is to have one noise law for the entire state that
both RIMA and law enforcement can live with.
Due to personal commitments Peter will not be
submitting the parking proposal or the right of way
proposal. We need YOUR HELP to continue.
