The MRF is a Grassroots
organization in every sense. The MRF was started in 1987 by motorcyclists,
and to this day is run by motorcyclists. All financial support
for the organization is generated from membership dues, donations
from state motorcyclists' rights organizations, motorcyclists'
rights seminars, and products sales.

MRF is the Washington,
D.C. voice of rider safety and freedom in the United States of
America -- the State Motorcyclists' Rights Organizations (SMROs)
nationwide. Because we are all about progress and advancement,
we refer to our members as MRF Volunteers -- all of us join the
MRF to work, not just to belong. While our volunteers number over
3,000, many are SMROs with a combined MRF/SMRO volunteer force
in excess of 250,000.
MRF is partisan
about one thing and one thing only -- motorcycling. We are women
and men of every race, creed and political party devoted to one
cause -- riders' rights and safety. Our volunteers value each
others' opinions, but understand fully that we will, from time
to time, agree to disagree. MRF volunteers are committed to each
other as brothers and sisters and pledged to uphold MRF's core
values of respect, integrity, leadership, teamwork, and excellence.
As an MRF volunteer,
you will learn far more than you contribute and contribute far
more than you can imagine. All our volunteers take pride in learning
and growing. We challenge the status quo, in ourselves and in
each other. And we recognize that becoming skilled in politics,
legislative action, communication and organizational effectiveness
is a lifelong pursuit.
We expect excellence
from you -- the MRF Volunteer
and you can expect excellence from the MRF
- Top-flight
training in politics, leadership, planning and organizational
skills -- for you, the rider and the SMRO, designed to create
a community of volunteers, here and abroad, proud of our lifestyle,
respectful of our diversity and committed to honing the skills
it takes to win the support and favor of civic leaders, lawmakers,
the media and other centers of influence.
- Ambitious
plans and programs to expand our base of MRF volunteers
to encompass every rider, no matter the ride.
- Trained,
motivated talent in every region of the country acting in
concert with our roots -- the SMROs nationwide that created
and continue to be co-partners with the MRF.
- Products
designed to instill pride in every ride, carry the message
of liberty to other riders and encourage them to volunteer in
our non-stop struggle for their safety and freedom.
- A bold,
aggressive, bipartisan political agenda -- an agenda aimed
at getting out motorcyclists' votes for friends in legislatures
across the U.S.A. We do this through MRFPAC, our political action
committee. Our aim is to elect friends, educate foes and cultivate
genuine MRFPAC Champions of Motorcyclists' Rights & Safety.
- As an MRF
volunteer, you'll tackle all the challenges facing motorcyclists
today. Our public policy interests are the protection of
riders' interests across the board: highway safety, personal
liberty, law enforcement, health care, discrimination, labor
issues, technology development, public opinion, highway access
and the relationship between federal power and state prerogatives.
We also pressure regulatory agencies to stay off our bikes and
climb aboard a campaign for proven safety strategies. Together,
we work city halls and state capitols, Capitol Hill and the
international arena.
MRF has an
aggressive agenda to advance safety and freedom on the road.
Our agenda covers the globe. So will you, our volunteer. Together,
we will:
- Preserve
rider access to America's roads and highways -- access that
can always be stripped away by opponents of your rights and
safety.
- Make all
roads and highways safer by working with Congress, law
enforcement, transportation authorities and even MRF allies
around the world to boost motorist awareness and motorcycle
safety training, and eliminate road hazards by making crash
barriers and other systems motorcycle-friendly.
- Win health
care coverage -- protection that is now systematically and
unlawfully denied to riders and their families simply because
we choose to ride motorcycles.
- Safeguard
our right to individualize the look and improve the performance
of our motorcycles, now under imminent threat by the U.S. EPA
in this country, and in Geneva where extremists are advocating
changes in how motorcycles are manufactured -- changes that
could hike purchase prices, boost repair costs, mandate the
use of dangerous devices in the name of safety and all but eliminate
the consumer mechanic and customizer and the aftermarket that
sustains us.
- Rein in
and redirect regulatory agencies -- we want regulators like
the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration off our bikes
and on the job of advancing proven accident prevention strategies,
keeping them off our bikes and focused instead on their primary
task of accident prevention.
- Limit federal
intrusion -- restore state prerogatives and preserve personal
liberty.
It's time for you to Ride with the Leaders.
