| | | MOTORCYCLISTS CONFEDERATION OF CANADA N e w s l e t t e r | | | | Dear Chris, It's RIDING season!! (Okay... in BC, you've been riding, like, forever...). The snow and ice is off the roads, most of the residue (sand, grit) of the winter has been cleaned up, and trails are opening up. Get out and RIDE! And when you do, remember the three "R's" of responsible motorcycling. RESPECT YOURSELF: Maybe you're a bit rusty? Consider a warm-up or a refresher. Give your ride the skills it deserves. RESPECT YOUR NEIGHBOURS: Loud pipes cost rights! Street riding or off-road. Quiet down. Or "be quieted" by regulators!! RESPECT THE LAND: They're not making any more. Don't tear it up. Don't enter restricted areas. AND SUPPORT A CLUB!! Spare a few bucks. They're working for YOU! | | AMA / MCC SPECIAL CONFERENCE PRICING | |  AMA / MCC AGREE TO SPECIAL CONFERENCE PRICING FOR CANADIANS, Collaborate to Enhance International Flavour -- In coincident releases issued on May 15, AMA and MCC announced collaboration on the International Women & Motorcycling Conference to be held August 19-22, in Keystone, Colorado.
