Find Like Minded Riders: Enjoy It Together!


Join the Ride: Building Connections in the Motorcycle Community

Embarking on your motorcycle journey is thrilling, but discovering a community to ride with can elevate the experience to new heights. Connecting with fellow riders offers invaluable support, wisdom from seasoned bikers, and a boost of confidence for beginners. Being part of a motorcycle community enriches your adventures, making every ride more enjoyable and memorable.

Wondering where to find your tribe? Here are some fantastic ways to get started!

Local Clubs and Group Rides

Motorcycle clubs have deep roots in riding culture. Most cities have local chapters or clubs that are easy to find with a quick online search or by exploring platforms like Meetup. These clubs frequently organize group rides, giving you the perfect opportunity to meet new friends and clock some miles together.

Community Apps

No matter your riding style or preferences, there are several apps designed to connect you with other riders.

  • TONIT: This app connects riders globally, allowing you to share experiences and celebrate the joy of riding together.

  • WLFxHERE: Developed by WLF ENDURO, this app is perfect for those who want to connect with like-minded riders and hit the trails.

  • COLLECTIVE by The Litas: Aimed at fostering a community for women riders, this app encourages growth and camaraderie among women in the motorcycle world.

  • KICKSTANDSUP: While unmoderated, KSU is a great place to find events in your area and discover ways to get involved.

  • EAT SLEEP RIDE: ESR offers a comprehensive platform for everything motorcycle-related, from tracking rides to finding local routes and organizing group rides.


Motorcycle Shows

Attending motorcycle shows is a fantastic way to immerse yourself in the world of bikes and connect with fellow enthusiasts. Notable events like The One Motorcycle Show, The Handbuilt Motorcycle Show, and Born Free are must-visits, but there are many more across the country where you can meet other riders.

Rider Education

Taking classes, especially those offered by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, is an excellent way to hone your skills and meet other riders. These courses are available nationwide and cover both street and dirt riding, providing a great setting to build connections within the community.


Dealership Events

Local dealerships often host events such as test ride days and community gatherings. These events are perfect for checking out new bikes and meeting fellow riders. Stay updated with your local dealer’s event calendar to join in on the fun.


Guided Tours

Whether you're riding your own bike or renting one, guided motorcycle tours, like those from EagleRider, offer a fantastic way to explore and meet other enthusiasts. For something a bit different, Can-Am’s UNCHARTED SOCIETY provides unique three-wheeler tours that deliver a fresh twist on the traditional motorcycle experience.


Social Groups

The digital world is full of vibrant motorcycle communities on platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Search for groups that match your interests, or follow your favorite manufacturers to find influencers and ambassadors who highlight exciting communities and locations.

In summary, finding your place in the motorcycle community opens up a world of shared experiences and lifelong friendships. So, get out there, join some groups, and enjoy the ride with your new moto family!
