Purpose Statement
Bunk-a-Biker is a worldwide community of motorcycle riders who voluntarily provide accommodations to traveling bikers. It’s a self-moderated network to be utilized along the road for meeting new friends, making road family, and getting support for maintenance needs. While it is a privilege to use, it’s not rightfully designed to be used purely for the sake of saving money but instead to promote the togetherness and support of a motorcycle-enthusiast community.
