GWRRA’s exclusive four-tier Rider Education Program encourages consistent ongoing training through commitment to safe motorcycling, frequently refreshed training in CPR and first aid skills, and ongoing study. Recognizing the realities of today’s motorcycling, GWRRA is one of the few sources of skill and safety education for motorcyclists who operate trikes and/or who pull trailers. GWRRA conducts hundreds of seminars and training sessions through its volunteer corps of educators, and takes the message of being “motorcycle aware” to the general public through its exclusive and proactive public speaking volunteers in its Motorist Awareness Division (MAD). http://www.gwrra.org/regional/ridered/index.html

Once you join GWRRA, you can participate with as many chapters as you wish. You decide your own level of involvement and time. Wherever you go, wherever you travel, you’re welcomed. GWRRA membership opens the doors to friendship everywhere you ride! Monthly Chapter get-togethers (often light-hearted exchanges of information at a breakfast location) are social occasions. There are no expectations, riding requirements, elections, politics, required uniforms or Chapter dues.
We invite you to share the joys of owning and riding your Gold Wing/Valkyrie with 80,000 people like you worldwide! We even guarantee you’ll be glad you did!
If you are looking for a truly great organization with which to get involved and ride with, you will find yourself always welcomed at any of our Chapter gatherings regardless of the brand or type of motorcycle you may ride.
