Hello: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
The weather has gotten cooler, There are still rides going on for Charities, such as toy rides and Christmas parties, I know some have rides planed for New years. Get to a meeting to find out more. Here in Northern Kentucky we have a ride Saturday December 10th to take gifts to the boys home. All welcome call a officer if you need information.
Also if you get a nice day to ride, and need a destination how about trying to find where our sponsors are and stop by to say thanks for their support. Let them know you are there for the kma.
We will be starting a membership drive for the districts January 1st. This is also when the New Legislative session begins. As of right now there are some Veteran issues I will watch. As about 90 bills have been prefiled, none are bike issues yet, but every year there is something. Please become a member or get on a phone tree, we need everyone, including sponsors. If you know a possible sponsor ask them or let someone know.
Also we are working with some other groups to help set up a free medical clenic for bikers. If you know of some medical supplies or someone who would be able to donate some time, contact a officer. Hope to let you know more as things come together and what this would mean for kma members.
Hope you have a joyous Holiday season, be safe, and see you on the roads.

Why won't the red light turn green?
By: Mike Canchola, AMA, KBA/KMA member and KY Transportation employee
Have you ever sat at a red light, that will not turn green, with no other traffic around? Maybe the light is broke, but maybe it's not the lights fault. More than likely it can't tell you are there. Red lights, or traffic signals, work two different ways. One, they work on a timer. Most city traffic signals work this way. I want to talk about the other method in which traffic signals work.
