Now you can travel pretty much anywhere in the U.S. and leave your personal Harley at home!

For Harley-Davidson enthusiasts, one of the best things about traveling to new and exotic places is getting to ride around these new and exotic places. But depending on where you’re going, it isn’t always practical or even feasible to take your own bike, which is where motorcycle rentals come in. Now, it’s going to be easier than ever to score a Harley-Davidson rental, thanks to the EagleRider and H-D themselves.

EagleRider, the world’s largest motorcycle rental and travel company, has formed a strategic alliance with Harley that will designate over 100 H-D dealerships as rental locations by May 2018. “Less than one year into our alliance with Harley-Davidson, we are very pleased to announce this key accomplishment,” said Chris McIntyre, CEO and Co-founder of EagleRider. “Our companies have been working diligently to deliver the largest connected network of motorcycle rental locations throughout the U.S. We are eager to continue reaching new riders across America as we head into prime travel season.”

Over 35 locations already offer rentals, with 70 more scheduled to join them in the coming months. And since they’re spread all over the U.S., you’ll be able to hit just about any good riding road you want. Not only that, this expansive network also plays right into Harley’s quest to attract new consumers to the brand.

“Our alliance with EagleRider is an important component of our objective to build two million new riders in the U.S.,” said Anoop Prakash, Director of U.S. Retail Development at Harley-Davidson Motor Company. “The opening of each additional location brings increased access to the sport of motorcycling and to our exciting 2018 motorcycle line-up. And there is no better place for new riders to start their motorcycling journey than in the care of the expert staff found at every Harley-Davidson dealership.”

Available rental bikes consist of current model year Touring and large cruiser models, naturally. And in addition to simply renting a motorcycle, riders can also sign up for guided tours of their selected location. A full list of current rental locations is available here!
