Free Check Twice Signs are everywhere!

FREE 2' x 3' CHECK TWICE SAVE-A-LIFE MOTORCYCLES ARE EVERYWHERE !!!! SIGNS !

Via the Mass. Registry of Motor Vehicles, the MMSF has secured 100 of these 2 ' x 3' signs, with stands, for FREE distribution. These were purchased by the RMV from the Motorcycle Safety Fund, as appropriated by the Legislature, from $2 of each annual motorcycle registration fee. Currently, signs are available at the Law Offices of the MMSF's General Counsel, Joseph S. Provanzano's office, 16 Bourbon Street, Peabody. Please call ahead to pick up your FREE sign (978) 535-8222. Within a week of so, if we have some left, we'll put them at those MMSF supporting shops now selling our Nelson's Ride tickets, limited amount of 10th Annual Nelson's Ride T-shirts, and MMSF raffle tickets! Help reduced motorcycle accidents with these FREE 'Check Twice . . . " signs !
