One of the great Freedom Fighters of Ohio/California ....
Atty Ralph Buss hired him in 1994 and "Stole" him from ABATE of California to help ABATE/CMRO - ABATE of Ohio inc. defeat the Federal Helmet Law in 1995.
I first met Bill when Ralph flew him into Columbus to speak at our Helmets Law Protest Rally on the steps of the Ohio Capitol. We were friends ever since.
Join me in TBH , "Thanking Bill in Heaven" for his work in fighting for our riding freedom as an activist, lobbyist, and a Biker Magazine Publicist...

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we must tell our precious Bikerdom family that our wonderful Ridin’ On Editor/Publisher William “Bill” Bish passed away Friday, August 4th, 2023 unexpectedly from medical complications while at the VA Hospital. Bill was a proud Marine and an exceptionally GOOD man full of integrity, compassion and a friend to all. His adult life centered around motorcycling and his passion for the lifestyle. Funeral arrangement details will be posted soon and, of course, all our Bikers are welcome to come send him off with honor to the National Cemetery. The Loves of his life, his wife Darlene and daughter Rachelle, are completely devastated and heartbroken. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers. Please respect their tremendous loss and understand this is a difficult transitional time and delay any business questions for a while. Thank you.

Today in Mighty Girl history, two young women set off on an incredible journey in 1916 -- sisters Augusta and Adeline Van Buren began the first successful transcontinental motorcycle tour across the U.S. by two women on solo motorcycles. They rode 5,500 miles in 60 days often over unpaved roads while traveling from NYC to Tijuana, Mexico.

The imminent entrance of the U.S. into WWI inspired the sisters' feat as they sought to prove that women could ride as well as men and were capable of serving as military dispatch riders. The women dressed in military-style leggings and leather riding breeches which were taboo at that time for women and, as a result, they were arrested several times along the way for wearing men's clothing. Yet, these two inspirational trailblazers were undaunted. As Augusta famously once stated, “Woman can if she will.”

Following their historic journey, both women continued to be trailblazers -- Adeline went on to earn a law degree at New York University while Augusta became a pilot and joined Amelia Earhart's international women's flying organization the Ninety-Nines. Augusta also became active in the women's rights movement fighting to win women the right to vote.
