The original American Legion Riders is a
group that was first formed in Garden City, Michigan, Post 396 in November
of 1993 by Polka Bill and Tramp Chuck. It consisted of members of the
American Legion, Auxiliary and Sons of the Legion who share an interest in
motorcycling. The
American Legion Riders are members of the
American Legion who are also motorcycle enthusiasts. They can be found
participating in parades, partaking in motorcycling events, and supporting
the communities in which they live, work, and play. Members of the ALR come
from the Legion, the Legion Auxiliary, and the Sons of the American Legion.
The American Legion Riders were formed:
1. to participate in parades and other
ceremonies that are in keeping with the Aims and Purposes of the American
Legion.
2. to promote motorcycle safety programs
and to provide a social atmosphere for American Legion members who share
the same interest.
3. to use our Association to promote and
support programs of the American Legion.
The American Legion Riders is not a
Motorcycle Club, and does not practice Motorcycle Club rules or regulations.
We are an association, a group of American Legion members that ride for a
cause. The American Legion Riders is family-oriented, just as is its parent
organization: the American Legion.
Membership is open to anyone who meets the
membership requirements.
