The Legion Riders
Who are the Legion Riders?
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 motorcycle club and does not practice motorcycle club rules or regulations. The American Legion Riders is family-oriented, just as is its parent organization: the American Legion.
