Become an AMA LongRider

You’ve put a lot of time in the saddle on your motorcycle. This year is a good time to be recognized by the American Motorcyclist Association and your peers.

The AMA LongRider program recognizes dedicated riders and rewards them for being serious about the sport.

How? The AMA LongRider program invites AMA members to register to earn patches for various mileage milestones. This is a road/adventure riding program.

Mileage awards are available at 10,000, 25,000 and 50,000 annual miles. Or, let your miles accumulate for a Lifetime Mileage award at 25,000, 50,000, 100,000, 250,000, 500,000, 750,000 and 1 million miles. Riders who achieve 1 million miles earn a special AMA LongRider plaque.

To participate in this program, you must be a current AMA member, must agree to abide by AMA verification rules and procedures and must register for the program (miles begin to accumulate once registered). You may use multiple motorcycles to accumulate miles.

Here is how it works:

Riders register using the AMA LongRider application; mileage counts from that day forward, unless you can provide verification of previous mileage with documentation from an AMA-chartered club. (The AMA will consider verified mileage awards from non-AMA groups/clubs/dealers on a case-by-case basis. Mileage will not be credited for years that you were not an AMA member.)

Send a current odometer photo with your AMA card in the photo or other verification as listed on the mileage award form. Odometer pics and other verification will be kept on record with the AMA. If multiple motorcycles are used, mileage will count from time each motorcycle is registered with the LongRider Program.

AMA LongRiders receive a decal and patch with registration.

Forms can be sent to AMA LongRider, 13515 Yarmouth Drive, Pickerington, OH 43147. It’s recommended that you make a copy or keep a record of the mileage you are submitting, so you know when to submit for awards.

Once you reach a milestone, return the AMA LongRider Mileage Award Request Form to AMA LongRider, 13515 Yarmouth Drive, Pickerington, OH 43147. It’s recommended that you make a copy or keep a record of the mileage you are submitting, so you know when to submit for your next award.

Send an updated odometer photo with your AMA card in the photo or other verification as listed on the mileage award form.

Only verifiable mileage counts toward AMA LongRider Awards (odometer vs. “trail miles”). This is a road/adventure riding program.
