Bikers Inside the Beltway Lobby Day Canceled

  • April 27, 2020 - MRF Board of Directors Cancels Bikers Inside the Beltway Lobby Day

    April 27, 2020

    After careful consideration, the Motorcycle Riders Foundation (MRF) Board of Directors has decided to cancel the 11th Annual Michael “Boz” Kerr Bikers Inside the Beltway lobby day that was scheduled for May 19, 2020.  We want to take a moment to thank our event sponsor Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys, our SMRO partners, members, and all of our event attendees for their continued support of our mission on Capitol Hill.  While we may not be able to advocate our legislative priorities face-to-face on May 19th, we will be reaching out to you on how you can continue to engage with your elected representatives on the issues that are important to us. 

    We want to assure you that we are still hard at work advocating on your behalf, and we hope that you can continue to answer our Calls to Action in the coming weeks. While the whole country faces major changes, we are working to adapt as an organization to continue to serve you. Let’s take this time to make sure we in the motorcyclists’ rights movement can continue to be effective in navigating our new political landscape and how we conduct our business. Every organization is currently faced with the cancellation of events, and the loss of fundraising opportunities. The MRF greatly appreciates your financial support and the fact that you entrust us to be good stewards of your investment in freedom. We strongly encourage you to contribute to your state motorcyclists’ rights organizations as well.

    At this time, we have decided that we will not be ordering any event t-shirts for this year’s event. If you have already pre-ordered a shirt, please reach out to the office at mrfoffice@mrf.org or (202) 546-0983 if you wish for us to issue a refund.

    If you need to cancel your hotel reservations, you may do so by contacting the hotel where you booked your accommodations. The hotel may reach out to you directly with cancellation information. You need to confirm that your hotel reservation is canceled 24-hours before the start of your booking to ensure that you are not charged for your stay.

    We are disappointed that we will not be together on May 19th to fill the halls of Congress with bikers as we have done over the past ten years. However, we encourage you to join us and your fellow freedom fighters in Indianapolis on September 24-27th for the 36th Annual Meeting of the Minds Conference hosted by A.B.A.T.E. of Indiana. You can register for the conference and find more information by visiting www.mrf.org/events.
