The grand prize winner will receive a trip for three to Washington, D.C., to be the guest of honor at the AMA Family Capitol Hill Climb on Thursday, May 26. One second-place winner will receive a $500 gift card to BikeBandit.com. One third-place winner will receive a $100 gift card to BikeBandit.com.

The video contest is an effort to get Congress to exempt youth-model motorcycles and ATVs from the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) of 2008. That’s because unless the CPSIA is repealed or modified, it will effectively ban the sale of youth-model motorcycles and ATVs at the end of 2011.
