Representing Wilmington in Asheville! 🚓🏍️

This week, our Motor Unit had the opportunity to assist at the BikeSafe Conference in Asheville, joining law enforcement officers, instructors, and motorcycle safety advocates from across North Carolina.

BikeSafe is focused on improving motorcycle safety through education, awareness, and rider training. It was a great experience sharing knowledge, learning from others, and supporting efforts to make our roads safer for everyone.

We’re glad to contribute to initiatives that promote safe riding throughout our state.
