We at RIMA would like to thank everyone that came out for our TOYS FOR TOTS Charity event.
The US MARINE CORPS. Reserve will distribute the toys to local children again this year.
A special thank you to West Bay Community Action for hosting the start and to Kingston Bowl for the
great ending location to receive the riders with there toy donations.
As we move closer to Thanksgiving and Christmas we all look forward to the holiday season with family and friends.
Lets also remember to be aware of the road conditions that deteriorate the colder it gets.
In January the Legislative session starts on 1/07/2025 at the State House. RIMA will be there to greet our Legislators.
We will be following all bills that may affect Bikers here in Rhode Island. Ready to respond as needed both for good bills
and for the bad.
Without RIMA there would not be a unified voice for motorcycle riders at the State House. Thank you to all of our members past and present for your support. Together we make a difference for safety education and legislation in R.I. We look forward to another 50 years of success. Our success depends on you JOIN RIMA TODAY help us help you. Our next Rima meeting is Tuesday 12/17/2024 at 7pm.
