THE MOTORCYCLE
RIDERS FOUNDATION
The Motorcycle Riders Foundation is chiefly
concerned with issues at the national and
international levels that impact the freedom and
safety of American street motorcyclists. We are
also committed to educating rights advocates to
improve effectiveness at the state and local levels.
The MRF works together with State Motorcyclists’
Rights Organizations (SMROs), assisting them
with state and local agendas as well as working
with them to influence Washington, DC – from
the Congress to government departments and
agencies to the Office of the President of the
United States. We also work with allies in Europe
and Asia to influence talks on vehicle globalization
and harmonization that are proceeding under the
United Nations and the World Health Organization
(WHO).
Our mission is to continue developing an
aggressive, independent national advocate for the
advancement of motorcycling and its associated
lifestyle which is financially stable and exceeds the
needs of motorcycling enthusiasts. Come join us
on that journey!
