EagleRider is a California-based motorcycle rental, touring and subscription company addressing the increasing two or three-wheel needs of experienced and novice motorcycle riders.
Shawn Fechter, Senior Vice President of Brand Experience for EagleRider, is our guest on this episode of The Weekly Driver Podcast.
In late January, EagleRider announced 18 of its 52 international locations are now accepting credits to be redeemed by Club EagleRider members in the company’s monthly subscription service.
The company’s services, available on six continents, include rentals from Harley-Davidson, BMW, Yamaha, among others, as well as adventure and electric bikes.
Podcast co-hosts Bruce Aldrich and James Raia talk with Fechter about the growing industry.
“As the world reopens, international travel is soaring in popularity, and the best way to experience it is on the seat of a motorcycle,” said Fechter. “Our club members can now tap into that sense of wonder and realize their dreams by redeeming credits for a global experience that is perfectly suited for them.”
In addition to renting motorcycles, customized tours led by experienced guides are exclusively offered to club members at most international destinations.
Club EagleRider membership plans range from one to 10 credits per month. Riders can use credit(s) each month, save them for up to 18 months, or share credits with family and friends at no extra cost.
EagleRider, which started 31 years ago, pioneered the motorcycle rental and tour business.
Please join Bruce and me as we discuss the industry and the variety of individuals renting motorcycles.
