BIKERS INSIDE THE BELTWAY

  • Hold The Line. Show Up. Be Counted. 

    The definition of a motorcycle is under pressure — and so is our patience.

    The Motorcycle Riders Foundation (MRF) is working to close a loophole that has allowed steering-wheel-equipped autocycles to operate under a motorcycle definition never meant for them. Removing a wheel from a small car doesn’t make it a motorcycle.

    A motorcycle is straddled.
    It has handlebars.
    It demands balance and skill.

    When definitions drift, regulations drift. And when regulations drift, riders pay the price.

    This isn’t about hurting anyone’s business. It’s about protecting the integrity of motorcycling — and the laws written specifically for us.

    Now is not the time to sit back.

    \ud83d\udce3 Answer the calls to action.
    \ud83d\udcde Contact your Members of Congress.
    \ud83c\udfdb\ufe0f And most importantly — register for Bikers Inside the Beltway.

    Face-to-face meetings move policy. Showing up changes outcomes.

    If you’ve ever benefited from the work done in Washington on your behalf, this is the moment to stand up and be counted.

    Hold the line.

    We’ll see you in D.C. May 18-19 at Bikers Inside the Beltway
