April is ‘AMA Go Ride! Month’

PICKERINGTON, Ohio — April 1 marks the beginning of the fourth annual "AMA Go Ride! Month." The 30-day celebration of all things motorcycling is sponsored by the American Motorcyclist Association and encourages motorcyclists nationwide to celebrate the thrill of riding on the street, track and trail.
"Winter is finally giving way to spring, and millions of motorcyclists have been eagerly awaiting the chance to ride," said AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman. "AMA Go Ride! Month pays homage to every motorcyclist for whom riding is not just a pastime, but a real passion."
This year’s AMA Go Ride! Month will include weekly prizes and a monthly grand prize. Complete details will be announced next week.
Each week during AMA Go Ride! Month, the AMA will focus on a special motorcycling theme with press releases and frequent posts on Facebook and Twitter.

  • March 31-April 4: "AMA Go Ride Your Way!" beckons to those who have a favorite trail or twisty road. Riders will be encouraged to post comments and photos on social media using the hashtag #AMARideYourWay.

During the week, upcoming AMA-chartered rallies will be featured, ranging from gypsy tours to dual-sport and adventure-touring rides to AMA national conventions.
