I went on my first group ride this weekend and everyone kept asking me if I was an ABATE member. And of course I've never heard of it. So I did some research online and found out some information. But I was wondering if anyone here was a member, what is it about, and if anybody has any comments on weather its something worth becoming a member of. It seems kind of political but I'm not really interrested in that, but if becomming a member means saving money on events it will be worth my time to do it. If anyone has any comments I would like to hear them.
