BEAST OF THE EAST EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE DRAWING NEAR
Washington, DC, March 10, 2008 — Each year the Motorcycle Riders Foundation holds two regional and one national conference to provide motorcyclists with the necessary tools to assist them with the fundamentals of motorcycle rights, education and awareness. This year the Massachusetts Motorcycle Association is hosting The BEAST of the East atthe Marriott Boston Peabody in Peabody, Massachussets from April 18-20.
Attendance to the Beast of East is open to both MRF members and the general public with members receiving a discounted registration price.

Registrations received before the deadline will be $60 for MRF Members and $70 for non-members. After March 26, the fee will increase to $70 and $80 respectively. The seminar cost will cover all the seminars

The Motorcycle Riders Foundation does extend a chapter/district group rate for every conference, which must be received prior to the early registration deadline.
