"’Why We Ride’ is an inspiring film that celebrates all that is great about motorcycling, and we’re pleased to work with the producers to bring this free showing to AMA members in Daytona for Bike Week," said AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman. "Several of the riders, racers and legends featured in the film will be on-hand for this exclusive showing, and we hope to see AMA members and other motorcyclists there for an unforgettable evening." 

For their efforts to elevate motorcycling, the film’s producers were awarded the 2014 AMA Hazel Kolb Brighter Image Award by the AMA Board of Directors. 

Here’s how the show’s producers describe "Why We Ride": "An inspiring celebration of the motorcycling community, this documentary film shares the passion of motorcycle riding and shows the camaraderie of the friends and families who ride together. As told by the many racers, riders, pioneers, and parents in the sport, the story weaves its way through generations of motorcyclists who live each day to the fullest on their two-wheeled machines. The refreshing message about the joys of motorcycling, coupled with state of the art photography, capture the imagination and set the soul in motion."
