Here are our best tips on how to find some new motorcycle friends you can ride with!
Tips on How You Can Make Motorcycle Friends
Tip #1: Be Outgoing
Be outgoing and put yourself out there to convey the message that you are open to meeting new friends you can ride with. Make sure to be yourself so that when meeting new people, you make friends with those who are most compatible to you. Don't ever feel the need to be someone you're not.
Tip #2: Keep An Open Mind
You never know who you will connect with - sometimes the best riding friendships are the ones we least expect! Keep an open mind and remember that not everyone you meet will be as open as you are to finding new friends.
Tip #3: Change Your Thinking
Instead of thinking, “Who can be my friend?” try to think, “Who can I be a friend to?” This will help to build genuine friendships with people who will enjoy your company as much as you enjoy theirs.
Places To Go
Local Events
Try to get out of your comfort zone to find motorcycle friends to ride with by going to local motorcycle events such as dealership events, BBQs, and bike nights.
The Dealership
Hanging out at the motorcycle dealership is an easier way to get to know the other local riders. So, if you want to ease your way into meeting new motorcycle friends, find an excuse to hangout at your local dealership. Other riders will probably be hanging out there, too!
Motorcycle Classes
You can either take a motorcycle skills class, or become a mentor for one, depending on your riding skill level. Either way, these social interactions are a great way to find new motorcycle friends to ride with.
