Biker fights Boston noise law

[speed]

AMESBURY — Paul Cote works in the legal department of an insurance company by day, and by night heads home to Amesbury, where he has lived for the past 12 years.

In his free time, however, Cote's known around the state as a high-profile Freedom Rider, one of a large group of motorcycle enthusiasts seeking to protect bikers' rights and ensure continued enjoyment of their favorite pastime.

In his work as a Freedom Rider, Cote organizes fundraising rides for those in need, brings bikers together to honor American war veterans, and is the man to see about all things related to the world of motorcycles.

Since June, however, Cote has been fighting tooth and nail to repeal an ordinance enacted in Boston that threatens to slap motorcycle owners who rev up too high in the city with a $300 noise-pollution fine.
