The American Legion Riders are a diverse group of motorcycle enthusiasts sharing common goals. All are members of The American Legion, American Legion Auxiliary, Sons of The American Legion---and all are united by patriotism.
They answer the call to ride in service to America's military, her veterans, for the children and youth of our country.
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 Auxilliary, and the Sons of the American
Legion. The American Legion Riders were formed...
...to participate in parades and other ceremonies that are in
keeping with the Aims and Purposes of the American Legion.
...to promote motorcycle safety programs and to provide a social
atmosphere
for American Legion members who share the same interest.
...to use our Association to promote and support programs of the American
Legion.
The American Legion Riders is not a M/C, and does not practice M/C
rules or regulations. The American Legion Riders is family-oriented, just
as is its parent organization: the American
Legion.
