AMA Go Ride! Month Begins Now


AMA Go Ride! Month, sponsored by the
American Motorcyclist Association, begins today. Throughout the
next four weeks, motorcyclists nationwide will welcome the 2014
riding season in style with information, entertainment, prize
drawings and more via the AMA Facebook page.
During the first week of April, "AMA Go Ride Your Way!" week
salutes those who tap into the freedom and individualism of
motorcycling on America's favorite trails and twisty roads. Riders
are invited to post pictures of their favorite bikes and rides on
the AMA Facebook page at www.facebook.com/americanmotorcyclist
and post comments on social media using the hashtag
#AMARideYourWay.
AMA Benefit Partners, including Avis, BikeBandit.com, ColorRite,
FLY Street and FLY Racing, PowerTye, Red
Roof Inns and Tour Master have stepped up in a big way with weekly
and monthly prizes to support AMA Go Ride! Month.
BikeBandit.com and Color-Rite are
providing $50 gift certificates to lucky winners during AMA Go Ride
Your Way! Week. Anyone who "likes" a post or comments on a post on
the AMA Facebook page by 5 p.m. EDT on April 4 is eligible to win.
One winner for each gift certificate will be chosen at random.
Each Friday in April is "Freedom Friday," when the AMA alerts
motorcyclists to important issues that pose threats to motorcycling
freedoms. BikeBandit.com is also providing a $50 gift certificate
for entrants in the Freedom Friday Contest. Details will be
provided on the AMA Facebook page and the winner will be selected
at random after 5 p.m. EDT on April 4.
Contestants do not have to be AMA members to win and can enter as
often as they wish during AMA Go Ride! Month. Contest rules are
posted on the AMA website: www.americanmotorcyclist.com/GoRideContest.
Updates will be available on the AMA Facebook page.
During AMA Go Ride Your Way! Week, AMA
members can access some cool tools on the members' section of the
AMA website. Street riders
