Four wheels move the body. Two wheels move the soul.

There's a Quality in riding a bike that transcends all lines: age, economics, country, gender, and reason. It doesn't matter what you wear, what type or color of bike you ride, or where you go. We all know what it is, we all share it. Rational words can't describe it; it's what you 'feel' inside you and around you.

ActualRiders is a group of folks who share this quality of riding. We share it online through this website and associated elements. And we share it in real life during local, regional and continental meets and group rides. We hope to continue annual rallies in places that inspire us to keep riding and sharing those rides with others. Remember, it's not just the goal, it's the journey.

The ActualRiders website and forum offer a central online interface for members to share discussion, events, news, technical matters, travel logs, and ourselves. As the group expands, the website interface will evolve. So check back for updates and news.

We welcome all riders who share our enthusiasm for riding and we hope you will join us on our journey.
