| Every rider has an opinion about the future of motorcycling. Fewer riders are willing to do something about it. The reality is simple: the future of motorcycling will not be decided by the millions of riders who stay home. It will be decided by the people who show up. The people who attend hearings. The people who meet with lawmakers. The people who learn the issues. The people who build relationships. The people who are willing to invest their time before the fight begins. That is exactly what Meeting of the Minds is about. For four days in Milwaukee, riders from across the country will gather to hear from experts, learn about emerging threats, discuss successful advocacy strategies, and prepare for the challenges ahead. The next battle over profiling, internal combustion engines, autonomous vehicles, access, insurance, aftermarket modifications, or rider freedoms may already be taking shape. When it arrives, will riders be prepared? Or will we once again depend on a small group of advocates to carry the entire load? Every generation of riders inherits freedoms it did not create. Every generation also inherits the responsibility to defend them. The future of motorcycling is not going to decide itself. September 24-27, 2026 — Milwaukee, Wisconsin — Meeting of the Minds Show Up. |
