ABATE of Indiana is the nation’s largest, most successful, proactive, state motorcyclists’ rights organization with over 25,000 members. Our interests range from street to off-road, educational to legislative, philanthropic activity and everything in between, with a non-discriminatory foundation towards the promotion and preservation of motorcycling for future generations.

ABATE was established in 1975 to represent the best interests of motorcyclists and the sport of motorcycling at the Indiana Statehouse and throughout Hoosier communities. Our presence during the legislative session ensures that motorcyclists are represented, giving a “voice” to Indiana riders for more than 35 years.

Whether it’s a discriminatory fee, unfair law, or issue that affects motorcycling, ABATE is a respected authority and serves as a resource for lawmakers, business leaders, community officials, and motorcyclists. Click here for more about ABATE.

ABATE is proud to be serving the motorcyclists of Indiana with quality, award-winning rider education for over 30 years. Started in 1977, ABATE of Indiana took the initiative to bring formal motorcycle rider education to the state with highly-skilled instructors and nationally recognized curriculum, winning praise from our students each year.

ABATE operates classroom facilities throughout the state, training between 5,000 and 7,500 students annually. More than 100,000 individuals have been trained since the program’s inception. Click here for more on the rider education program.

In 2005, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles asked ABATE to assume the responsibility of motorcycle license examinations. This move saved the state money, opened more facilities, expanded the schedule, and enhanced the testing experience for motorcyclists by having skilled riders implement the exam.

In 2010, ABATE welcomed the state’s OHV (off-highway vehicle) advocacy authority, Discover Indiana Riding Trails (DIRT) into our family. DIRT brings their expertise in everything off-road, and their dedication in preserving OHV rights while providing future opportunities here in Indiana.

DIRT has worked hard to bring OHV opportunities to all Hoosiers through their past and continued efforts, creating relationships with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and other state agencies to open, maintain and develop new opportunities throughout the state. They have also played a vital role in opening over 5,000 acres of state-owned land.

With DIRT’s involvement, the DNR opened Red Bird SRA (State Recreational Area), an OHV park with 1,200 acres in 2003. In 2008, the DNR opened Interlake, Indiana’s second OHV/multi-use park with 3,500 acres.

If it involves OHV in Indiana, DIRT is in it. Click here for the latest from DIRT. Click here for the DIRT website.
