PICKERINGTON, Ohio -- Make your holiday gift giving easy this year, while you help protect the future of motorcycling. With the click of your mouse, you can give the gift of motorcycling with a membership to the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA).

"AMA membership is one of the best values any season, whether you are giving or receiving," said AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman. "Maybe your holiday shopping list doesn't include a new bike this year, but you can still give your friends and family the world of motorcycling with a $39 membership to the AMA."

Members receive a subscription to American Motorcyclist magazine, access to the Members Area of AmericanMotorcyclist.com, and dozens of money-saving discounts on gear, accessories, lodging and other products and services. Members who sign up for automatic renewal, as well as those who buy three-year memberships, also receive free AMA Roadside Assistance. AMA Roadside Assistance includes roadside-assistance services for all your vehicles and your family's vehicles, from motorcycles to cars to RVs and trailers.

So skip the traffic, crowds and lines and download an AMA Membership Gift Certificate today at AmericanMotorcyclist.com/AMAgiftcertificate.

Not only does an AMA Membership include all the benefits of membership, but it also helps protect the future of motorcycling. The AMA is on the nation's front lines, fighting against bike bans, off-highway vehicle trail closures and unreasonable laws of all kinds that unfairly target motorcyclists.

"By supporting the AMA with the gift of membership, you enlist a fellow soldier in that fight, helping to keep trails and roads open to motorcycles today and tomorrow," Dingman said. "Membership also supports the Association's mission of promoting the motorcycle lifestyle -- demonstrating to both riders and non-riders the fun that can be had from racing, commuting and traveling on two wheels."

In addition, AMA Members can register for AMA-sanctioned events (additional fees may apply), which include road rallies, dual-sport rides, motocross events, woods races and more. The AMA calendar includes thousands of events every year all over the country, spanning nearly two dozen types of competition and recreational events.
