We provide educational resources, riding gear such as helmets, gloves and eyewear, simulated riding experiences and riding course practice materials. BikerFest provides assistance to novice riders, through mentoring of good sportsmanship and connecting them with other organizations. We also work directly with motorcycle academies to offer opportunities for low income residents to learn in a safe environment. BikerFest also creates opportunities for low income residents to gain employment in the motorcycle industry through our partnerships with local businesses and organizations. It is our goal to:
- • Encourage safer riding practices
- • Connect Milwaukee residents with job opportunities
- • Connect the bikers with the commUNITY
