This Bill was tabled and with the current situation in our country, the bill is dead. Now looking forward we need to  make sure that we have our voices heard by voting next Fall for people who believe in our rights and change the current situation in our State. If we do not get out and vote for those who believe as we do, then we will indeed face a bill like this again next year!

As we all do our part to deal with the Covid 19 situation, I can only hope that all of you and your families are safe and hopefully are not  hit to hard from this economically. 

 Laconia Bike Week -- Last night, the Laconia City Council voted to officially reschedule the 97th Anniversary of Laconia Motorcycle Week to August 22nd-30th, 2020.  

Regular “Rally” operations will remain the same but reflective of the NEW dates.  Here’s what we know at this point: 

• Rally Headquarters will be open from August 22nd-30th on the boardwalk of Lakeside Avenue
• Lakeside Avenue will be closed to motorcycle-only traffic from August 22nd-30th,  with free center lane parking for motorcycles (same as 2019)
• The  City (and town of Meredith) will continue to permit vendors for approved       locations on various properties throughout the area.

However,  Hollywood and the media has made these two words synonymous. If you own  a Harley, wear a patch and ride in a group, it is the equivalent of  putting a target on your back. 

We can help put a stop to this by making this issue a national discussion.
