AMA Member Privileges
Whether you're riding coast-to-coast or commuting to work, sooner or later you're going to need to protect your legs from the elements. Now, members of the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) can purchase one of the most convenient solutions for less. because Biker Rain Chaps is offering AMA members a 25 percent discount on every purchase.
The newest AMA partner, Biker Rain Chaps offers products that protect your legs from rain, road spray, mist, cool weather and wind. These chaps are particularly useful for keeping you clean and ready for work, and are easier to get on and off than a full rain suit. Biker Rain Chaps also add an extra layer of insulation for chilly mornings or evenings after the sun has gone down. While not a replacement for full rain gear, Biker Rain Chaps are an indispensable first line of protection against poor road conditions.
"In the thousands of miles that AMA members ride each year, we run into our fair share of situations that don't call for a full rain suit, but still expose our legs to unfavorable conditions," said AMA Director of Business Development Jim Moore. "These are just the type of conditions that Biker Rain Chaps are designed to protect you from, thoroughly and economically."
Biker Rain Chaps normally cost $19.99. AMA members can now purchase them for just $14.99 -- a 25 percent savings. A webpage page where members can access this discount is available in the Members Area of
AmericanMotorcyclist.com.
"As a 15-year member of the AMA, I've been on many rides, long and short, with my friends in the AMA," said Mitch Harris, owner of Biker Rain Chaps Ltd. "No matter the distance, nothing ruins a great ride faster than bad weather. What's worse is when we had rain gear in our bags, but didn't get it on until after we were soaked. Even when we manage to avoid the rain, the road spray from the wet pavement still will thoroughly soak riders, at least from the knees down. This is why I created Biker Rain Chaps. Much more convenient than full rain gear, they protect the most exposed part of your body from wind, cold, rain and general road grime. At the end of the day, when the road gets you wet, Biker Rain Chaps keep you dry and comfortable."
The Biker Rain Chaps discount is just the latest in a long list of dozens of benefits and savings for AMA members. Another great value is free AMA Roadside Assistance for members who sign-up for automatic renewal or purchase a three-year membership. For more on the benefits of AMA membership, see

There are times as a motorcyclist when Mother Nature is not your friend and you are confronted with rain, wind, dust, searing heat, freezing cold or worse. Thankfully, you can fight back, and one of the best reinforcements is quality gear.
The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) is pleased to announce that Schampa is riding to the rescue with 15 percent discounts for AMA members on all
Schampa.com apparel purchases such as balaclavas, facemasks, neck gaiters and high-tech undergarments.

"Motorcyclists are always looking for ways to extend the riding season when the weather turns cold, as well as stay both comfortable and safe during hotter summer months," said Jim Moore, AMA director of business development. "Schampa offers a full line of products that help with both weather extremes, from their moisture-wicking Coolskin shirts to thermal gear that will keep you warm in harsh conditions."
Schampa sells a number of products with the specific needs of motorcyclists in mind. Popular items include balaclavas and facemasks that work well under both full-face and open-face helmets. Schampa Skinny shirts, with contour cut sleeves that help reduce arm fatigue, and Schampa insulated thermals fit nicely under either mesh or cold-weather gear, and most long-sleeved shirts include optional thumbholes that ensure the sleeve will never ride up during long rides.
"AMA members range from Baja racers to long-distant touring riders, and we're excited to extend this discount to all of them," said Schampa Owner Andy Myers. "As motorcyclists ourselves, we've learned what works in apparel, and we build that knowledge into every piece of gear we make. We know you never want to stop riding, and while we can't promise that your riding season will never end, we can promise that our gear will keep you comfortable far longer."
