West Virginia Mountaineer

It looks like West Virginia will make a lot of progress this year, thanks to a hard working biker activist named Celeste. If you are involved with bikers rights in WV, or you subscribe to the West Virginia Biker Bulletin email list, you know she's as active as anyone can possibly be.

We are lucky to have her on board. She's given us a list of all the legislative races coming up in 2010, and we have them all listed now on the ELECTIONS page at RIDE2REPEAL.COM. As more information becomes available we'll update the page accordingly.

For now, the West Virginia Races comprise the districts, names of candidates, links to their campaign websites, and a Google map application that gives you driving directions to that district.

When more info comes in, we can color-code the candidates' names based on their stance on repeal. For incumbents, it's ideally their voting record. Otherwise we have to ask them ... and usually they say so.

The final step in making it work comes down to you. All this ground work is for one purpose: to get campaign volunteers into the closest races, working for biker-friendly candidates. That gives us political power ... far more than talking to legislators could ever do.

According to the West Virginia map, we don't have many campaign volunteers available. So if you are interested in getting your rights back with the least amount of effort, the greatest impact, and the quickest lasting results, come join us.

Click on the SUBSCRIBE tab at the top of RIDE2REPEAL.COM. All we need is your ZIP code and your email address. That will put you on the map as a blue motorcycle (Subscriber). And if you've worked as a campaign volunteer, we'll change it to a red bike once you let us know.

If you want to take action and restore your rights the ball is now in your court.
