MRF REPORT & LEGISLATIVE OFFICER REPORT - JOHN STEELE
One billion dollars. That’s a
“guesstimate” I came across on the
total revenue from the Sturgis
Rally in South Dakota, including city
and state taxes. But that was
previous years and this year’s rally
was obviously larger. I’m still
looking for this year’s stats as I
write this article and hopefully by
next month I’ll have some
interesting details. One stat that
was sadly too large is the fatalities.
We cannot prevent all accidents
from occurring but it is painful to
read details of crashes in the
newspaper that were obviously
avoidable by the rider if they had
proper training or experience.
It’s very slow in DC right now with
Congress having recessed for the
month of August. When everyone
gets back from that recess the
Highway bill will be taken up by the
House. It’s very unlikely that the
House will take the Senate passed
Highway bill and pass as is, more
realistically the House will be slow
to do anything until forced by the
deadline. Current funding expires
October 29th. The MRF is working
with various transportation
coalitions to get on the same page
and force the House to act on a
Highway bill.
As mentioned in the previous
paragraph, it’s recess and YOUR
elected representatives are back in
their home districts to campaign
and have town hall meetings. This
is the perfect time to see them at
these meetings and press for a
motorcycle friendly transportation
bill! Better yet, bring some of your
chapter members and fill several
seats of a town hall meeting.
Ride safe and sober,

AROUND THE STATE WITH PHIL
I am getting a very late start on my column this month as
we just got back from the Sturgis Rally 3 days ago. I have
only 5 days to get my column completed & sent to Susan at
the Freedom Flyer. Sometimes I can look at my blank
screen which then feels like my blank brain.
We put 1350 miles on our trike in a week’s time & want to
thank the good Lord for giving us a safe journey. Somehow
we managed to miss all the storms & hail while on our
journey across the state of South Dakota. I haven’t heard
what they estimate on how many bikers attended the rally.
But I do know that there were more people attending the
rally than in years past. Sturgis was really a zoo & venders
were everywhere. It did seem that traffic in & out of Sturgis
was kind of strange. At times it was crowded getting into
town & then crowded to get out of town. But seldom did it
seem that the traffic was full going both ways. Generally
people were courteous when riding their bikes & for the most
part people in cages (4 wheeled enclosed vehicles) gave us
bikers the right of way when we had it. It also seemed that
most of the accidents were bikers that were just going to fast
around curves & lost control.
We left for Sturgis on Friday, July 31st. We did have to
wait a couple of times on Highway 14 since they had
construction on that road. The traffic between Wall & Rapid
City wasn’t as bad as I thought it might be. We arrived in
Rapid City at about 4:00 in the afternoon & arrived at the
residence of Darlene Gilby where we were staying for the
week. Her dog, Foster, greeted us with a lot of enthusiasm
& it seemed he remembered us from the last time we were
there. We ate supper at the China Luck restaurant where we
had some great tasting food. The owner came to our table
to visit with us & made sure we were happy with our service
& food.
On Saturday morning we ate breakfast at the American
Legion in Piedmont. They had a great tasting breakfast for
only $7.00.
Probably the cheapest in the Black Hills
anywhere. In fact, we ate breakfast there most of the time.
Then, we went to watch our son, Schaun Schnathorst doing
some drag racing at the Sturgis drag strip. He was racing a
Harley nitro bike which was his first time doing so. In my
way of thinking riding a bike like that would be like riding a
bullet coming out of a .45 caliber handgun. His mother & I
were saying a few prayers as he was ready to leave the line.
The track is only an 8th of a mile & he ran about a 6 second
run with a speed of over 134 mph. He made four runs over
the weekend & survived them all. Then we rode through
Sturgis to see all the sights. It was very hot on Main St so
we decided to do a little riding in the Hills where it was a lot
cooler. On the way back we stopped at a gas station to get a
couple of hot dogs. A group of riders there said that they
were from Dallas & had ridden through Michigan to get to
Sturgis. They said that the Hills were some of the greatest
riding they had done since leaving home. They were not
looking forward on their trip back to Dallas where the
temperature was over 100 degrees. When Norma came out
from the store she had couple of ham sandwiches & she did
let me know that she was in a grocery store & not a gas
station. So we rode back to Darlene’s place & ate those
sandwiches which were really quite tasty.
On Sunday we rode on the BH ABATE Charity Poker Run.
We rode through part of Rapid City, Nemo Road, Spearfish
Canyon & ended up at Whitewood. We rode about 120 miles
through what some people claim is some of the best
motorcycling in the world. Norma won one of the door
prizes which was baggage for a cruiser type of motorcycle.
Since we couldn’t use it Norma let them draw for another
winner. What a nice person Norma is!
On Monday we rode through the Southern Hills & when
we rode into Keystone the traffic was stopped about 2 miles
from town as bikers were waiting to go through Keystone.
We then took the scenic road along the 1880 train track
which goes from Keystone to Hill City. Later that afternoon
it looked like some rain was coming our way so we headed
back to Rapid City. That evening we ate at Fuji’s which is a
Japanese Steak House. It was a real interesting experience
watching the Chef do his cooking. At one time the fire was
so big I thought he was going to burn the place down. The
food was great especially the rice he made. We had shrimp
& steak with lots of veggies & sauces. I do know that the
next time we visit Rapid City we will be back at that food
station.
On Tuesday we rode to Vale to eat some breakfast. We
did manage to bypass the heavy bike traffic in Sturgis by
taking the BH Cemetery Exit which was a gravel road which
ended up at the VA east of Sturgis. It had some very sharp
curves but really was a very scenic ride. We met Darla
Dunn (a former Huron resident) who is the pastor of the
Vale Church. She was one of the women in charge of the
biker breakfast they were serving. We then rode up to Hwy
212 through some rolling hills & saw a lot of small irrigation
systems. Since Spearfish Canyon is one of our favorite
rides we rode through it again. We then rode through
Sturgis which was very slow going. Of course, we had to
cruise through Main St & make our presence known. People
were just everywhere & some were more interesting to look
at than others.
On Wednesday we rode through Spearfish Canyon again.
I can just hear you thinking we really enjoy that ride or just
don’t have anywhere else to ride. When you do ride through
Spearfish Canyon it looks completely different when you
ride through from a different direction. That evening we ate
at Ruby’s Tuesday with daughter Mindy & the grandkids. As
we left & it was getting dark & it started to rain. We had to
ride completely across Rapid City & the closer we got to
Darlene’s the more it looked like some hard rain was
coming our way. As we pulled into Darlene’s yard we
noticed she had the garage door open for us to ride our
trike in. What a great host she is!
On Thursday we went to the Whitewood Social Hour
where our ABATE friends were meeting. MRF President
“Hardtail” gave us some comments about what the MRF is
doing for us as riders. He said that a rider came up to him &
said there was something he didn’t like about South Dakota
repealing the motorcycle high handle bar law. He said that
it caused him to sunburn his armpits. Thursday evening was
spent eating at Perkins & getting ready for the trip home.
On Friday we left for home & the traffic from Rapid City to
Wall was very crowded but once we got to Wall & took Hwy
14 home it was a breeze. Our trike didn’t miss a beat all
week & it was great to get home after a hot ride across
South Dakota.
Until next Month

Whitewood City Park Thurs 12:00
noon. This is a free event to all
ABATE members so if your
attending the Rally this year please
come see us.

Pierpont WHEEL INN. We went
over good and bad points of this
years Run. 1st it was unanimous of
the people attending that everyone
had a blast & most everyone does
want to have a 36th. 2nd it was
also unanimous that of the 110
Aberdeen ABATE members we
currently have, only about 1/3rd of
them attended. We once again had
Band Members helping with the
Gate and Games. Sioux Falls
members & even some Nonmembers helping in the ABATE
shack selling T-shirts & patches and
even new memberships.
Gate sales were about 90 people
short of break even.
FREEDOM FLYER
That said there were some very
good points made. The Flyer ads we
sold brought in enough $$ to make
up for about 50 people. All our new
RV hookups worked perfect and all
were used to their full capabilities.
Poker Run had 65 people . Split
Pot sold very well. All our Vendors
seemed very happy as did the
people still Rockin to Wicked Drive
at 4:41 am when they finally
decided to call it a night Sat Night.
New business:
Pierpont Lake/
WHEEL INN - 1st everyone wants to
make sure to thank Darlene
Peterson for use of the Concession
Trailer. It worked wonderful
although is no fun to clean
according to Shane & Renee. (Yes
I’m whining a little bit)
It was
m o t i o n e d, 2n d a n d p a s s e d
unanimously that “Shoeless Tom”
needs to use his own Cabin so the
Porta Pot’s don’t get damaged when
he gets tipped over. We will use
shrink wrap and Duct Tape next
time.
One of our members made a
motion but it was mainly just a
statement that most attending
agreed with. WE NEED MORE HELP
at Pierpont Lake if this Run is to
continue. Everyone at the meeting
was present at the WHEEL INN and
Pres. Shane stated we need to give
Huge Thank You’s to everyone that
was there personally, helped
financially or physically, but we
need more people.
The Beer Truck will need at least
$500 worth of work next year. It is
not feasible to move Kegs back &
forth in the Budweiser trailer &
keep all the food & Pop etc. cold so
we need to fix the truck or get a
2nd reefer trailer next year.
Shane also stated that we did
indeed recoup $860 in Electric costs
by renting the new RV spots this yr.
At that rate we will meet our goal of
recovering costs in the 5-7 yr range
as planned. All in all the run lost
approximately the same amount it
made last year but our treasury is
down the remaining $$$ we are yet
to recover on the Electrical
upgrades… Not what we hoped for
but not terrible & better than some
other smaller Runs in our area.
It was motioned, 2nd & approved
we call for both Bike Show &
WHEEL INN Committee members at
the OCT Mtg… (Note) We will
probably also motion / Vote if any
appo se o n o u r Bi k e S h o w
partnership with the Aberdeen
Crusaders either at the Sept or Oct
Meeting.
Holly Jones Made a motion which
was 2nd & approved we again
participate in the Brown County Fair
Tailgating Party Sat during the Fair.
Up to $200 was approved. Holly will
cook, Shane Blumhardt will handle
apparel. Pres Shane will bring the
trailer & supplies needed. Jenny &
Chris/Brenda are donating use of
grills & Loren will supply propane.
Dick L. Donated a Gazebo to
Aberdeen ABATE to be used also.
A motion, & 2nd was made to have
all meetings in July in the Pierpont
area as we have done in the past.
Approved
Discussion on our hired security
was held. We will ask that Dallas be
on site personally if his firm is again
hired for 2016.
IMPAC Split-pot: $13 Won by
Renee which she donated back
towards WHEEL INN Improvements
for 2016

so well during an event such as
this, but can’t even see eye to eye
on minor details? Can you
imagine how small disasters could
be managed if they would apply
this same level of cooperation to
those events. I have seen firsthand what really goes on when
you get all the levels of
government working together. It
was not a smooth running
machine. Somehow I place these
two thoughts together and came
up with a scenario that is
probably closer to what really
happened than anything reported
by the media. The people who
think they had things under
control were using seagull
management techniques.
They
come onto a peaceful scene
squawking and making all kinds of
noise, flapping their wings and
causing a big disturbance, shit all
over the place then fly away.
Leaving a big mess for the real
workers and people who are
around all the time to clean up
and once again get things running
smoothly.
SOUTHEAST CHAPTER NEWS.
Well Sturgis is once again in the
past.
I read somewhere that
there was minimal violence during
the Rally. What struck me as very
ironic and also quite hilarious was
the fact the government taking
credit for this. According to the
article I read this was due to the
planning and cooperation of all
the entities of government.
Starting at the federal level all the
way down to the city level. My
first thought was didn’t all the
people attending this year’s
historic event have anything to do
with this. Did all the attendees
come to the Rally to rape, pillage
and create mayhem without any
regard for the rest of the people
out there. I sure am glad the
government stepped in and
protected all of those people.
There would have been total
anilalation of these people without
the control of the powers that be.
After a few seconds a second
thought entered my wayward
brain.
How is it that the
governments can work together
As a side note. Being an employee
of a small city myself my regards
go out to the city employees who
deal with this onslaught of people.
Unless you have been there I am
sure you have no idea what it
must be like to run any of these
city facilities. Designed to operate
at a normal rate for maybe
10,000 people and for 3 weeks
have over a million people storm
in. Imagine your household of 4
people on average being besieged
by the same percentage. 400
people living in your home for a
week what would you do? So you
can see why I think these are the
real heroes in this situation. They
somehow keep the turds flowing
in the right direction and the
water there when you turn on the
tap. This includes the electrical
use and many other services
provided by the unsung heroes
who work behind the scenes. To
those people I salute you.

Greetings to all. Well, the bodies
are barely cold after the 75th and
our protectors are already patting
themselves on the back. Yes
they`re already taking credit for a
million of us not killing each
other. What a heroic bunch of
clueless bastards. I suspect that
DUI numbers are down because
the rookies crashing kept the cops
busy and they couldn`t go on
their usual fishing expeditions,
illegal stops, harassments and
revenue generation schemes. I
wonder what they came up with
for probable cause this year since
the handle bar restriction is the
length of your arms.
Oh, wait, I know, you were
swerving in your lane. I think that
a lot of them (especially hires out
of Arizona and Texas) were upset
that there were too many of us to
set up a swat team crossfire
ambush like Waco. That`s not to
say that they didn`t get even.
There were plenty of civil asset
forfeitures. Yup, no charges
needed `cause we`re going to
charge your money with a crime.
We also know that you`re from
the other side of the country and
it`s not likely that you will be able
to fight this in court..We took all
your money, remember?
Yeah, we`ll ruin your life just as
well as if you rode off a cliff. As
for those who go home in a body
bag (that`s why they needed at
the campground) my condolences
to the families. Rest assured that
they went out doing what they
loved. This includes the 75yr old
man that crashed his corvette and
was counted in the stats.
The official stats, 800,000 to 1.2
mill, still leaves a gap of 400,000.
I`ve always said that it`s
impossible to get a real count.
What about the people who only
come into town once to buy tshirts, the ones who have been
there and left, and the ones who
haven`t gotten there yet? One of
their strips counted 200,000
coming in, in one day. A
conservative estimate would put
that around 1mill. With 13
fatalities that would be approx.1
in77,000. That`s a packed
stadium and someone fell off the
back. 1,000,000 people! With that
many people someone is going to
fall out of the herd for whatever
reason.
danger. Whether it`s our right to
ride
unencumbered
or
modifications for our favorite
steed and black boxes that tell
them when and where we are on
the road, we have to stay vigilant.
I remember more than that
getting shot after a rap concert in
Chicago. On the 50th the tally
was 11. They included in this,2
asphyxiation camping accidents
and an Aussie who went bezerk
and was shot by the cops.
By now the Aug.22 meeting will
have been held and the final
nominations taken. There is no
Sept. meeting. Voting for officers
will be Oct.3 at the Am. Legion in
Lennox,1:00pm. This will also be
the time to set calendar for 2016.
Well, I don`t know about you but
I always feel so much safer
knowing that there`s 2,000
undercover cops and two on every
corner. That price tag had to be
huge! Have you ever known
anyone who felt safer with a large
police presence? When I saw
those red lights behind me I felt
all warm and fuzzy, knowing that
my public servants were there to
insure my well-being, said no one
f---ing ever.
Ride safe. They are out to get
you.
Was sad that I missed the 32nd
Annual Whitewood Social Hour.
This has always been a great way
to meet other MRO activists from
all over the world. We need their
input and updates on the fights
that they are having. This is
especially so involving Europe.
Every battle that they lose brings
the crap closer to our shores.
Between the UN and the CDC
always having the ear of a
backwoods Sen. or Rep. looking
to make a name for themselves,
our way of life is constantly in
I guess we`ll find out how
screwed we are by the TPP when
it becomes public in 5 or 10
years. There won`t be any
headlines except the reporter
saying, "The belligerent biker was
not wearing his total body suit
when the bridge fell on him.”
Respectfully,
Alias
