The Lexington chapter of ABATE of SC presented
another Spooks and Spokes Run October 28th. The motorcycle
run began at the Triple Crown after dark. The first stops
were in Columbia's historic Elmwood Cemetery. Bobbys was
the next stop and the final stop was at the VFW in Lexington
where ABATE had built a haunted house or rather woods for
the many riders to enjoy. The ambulance complete with a
blaring siren and flashing lights lead many to believe someone
had hurt on the run. However it was just a sneaky trick.

The Spooks and Spokes run began small a few
years ago with 7 volunteers working the run. Now there are
over 30 volunteers work the run rather than riding it. The
level of entertainment was incredible and everyone working
or playing seemed to be having fun. Make plans to join next
years spooky motorcycle ride and find out why the Lexington
chapter is the largest chapter with over 500 current members.
