2022’s Motorcycle Rallies: Plan Your Ride

A view of a motorcycle rally that took place in 2021: Many motorcycles ride around as riders reacquaint each other post-COVID

We’ve had a crazy year and it’s not even Q2 yet. 

In and amidst the latest business advice on post-COVID recovery, the Ulster Grand Prix being canceled due to fund rejection and the myriad of bike brands that have come together in support of Ukraine, riders across the country are settling back into the seasonal routine – and if you’re analog calendar is anything like my own, that means a list of rides as long as the CE Level 2 armor on my Alpinestars leather jacket. 

U.S. Marine Tim Chambers salutes participants in last year's Rolling Thunder motorcycle demonstration.

In line with the times, we’ve done some digging on CycleFish and curated a list of up-and-coming motorcycle rallies across the nation. Whether the ride is happening for a cause or the cause is simply getting some bugs on the ol’ visor, it’s high time we woke the lady from her hibernation, tuned ‘er up, and let her run free for a hot minute. 

That also goes for the bike. Just saying.
