About the Love Ride

The Legacy Returns

Since 1984, Love Ride® has united riders, celebrities, and communities for one purpose: to make a difference. With over $25 million raised for charities, it remains the world’s most iconic one-day motorcycle fundraising event. In 2025, the tradition continues — bigger and more impactful than ever.

About the Love Ride

Love Ride® began in 1984 as a grassroots motorcycle event driven by a simple mission: to support those in need. Over three decades, it evolved into the largest and most respected single-day motorcycle charity event in the world, raising more than $25 million for a wide range of causes.

Organized by riders, for riders, Love Ride is a celebration of freedom, goodwill, music, and community. Celebrities like Jay Leno, Steven Tyler, Peter Fonda, Brian Cranston, Robert Patrick, Dennis Hopper, Lorenzo Lamas, Willie G. Davidson, and many more have joined tens of thousands of riders from across Southern California to make a lasting impact.

Past editions have featured live music from Foo Fighters, ZZ Top, Billy Idol, Jackson Browne, Social Distortion, Robby Krieger, and more — along with stunt shows, bike exhibitions, food, and fun that all benefit great causes.
