Motorcyclists gather at Capitol to lobby representatives

Sent in from Rogue Leather vests, chaps and blue jeans replaced standard business attire up and down the Capitol hallways Monday as motorcyclists from across Texas gathered to speak with their representatives about legislation affecting their freedoms and lifestyle. At the top of most motorcyclists’ agendas: helmet laws, profiling and a proposal to institute roadblocks to catch drunk drivers. Tom Cross hoped the group’s numbers — and perhaps their atypical Capitol attire — would bring their concerns to legislators’ attention. “These are our regular clothes for a lot of us,” the Orange-area resident said. “I wear these to church.”
