MAC has about 400 members from around Southern Louisiana. Most of the membership is currently in the Baton Rouge, Hammond and Lafayette regions. Other chapters are expected to be formed soon in other Louisiana cities, as well as Arkansas and Texas.
We are growing every day, and are having an impact! Motorcycling is already safer because M.A.C. exists! But there is still much to be done.
You can be a part of this grassroots effort to make motorcycling safer for all of us who ride. We need contributions (all deductible--we are a 501C3 corporation), we need your time and we need your help!
