Who We Are
BLUE KNIGHTS
|
The BLUE KNIGHTS® is a non-profit fraternal organization consisting of active and retired law enforcement men and women who enjoy riding motorcycles. In the spring of 1974, several law enforcement officers from Bangor, Maine (USA) area met and formed a small, local motorcycle club. The rest, as they say, is history! Soon, Blue Knight chapters were being formed in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and beyond. With the addition of Canada, and later Australia, the Blue Knights became an international organization. The Blue Knights have more than 650 chapters and 19,000+ members in 11 conferences in 29 countries.
According to the By-Laws, our purposes and goals are to: 1. Provide for the mutual assistance, enjoyment, entertainment, education, physical, mental and social benefit of its members and the general public. 2. To promote and advance the sport of motorcycling and the safety of motorcycling. 3. To serve the interests of motorcycle owners and users. 4. To promote by example and any other acceptable means, safe use, operation and enjoyment of motorcycles. 5. To develop a fraternal spirit between law enforcement personnel and the general public. |

Colorado Chapter 1 was started in Denver in March 1986. We presently have over 40 members and are still growing! Membership is restricted to full, part-time, or retired law enforcement officers. However, the By-Laws do allow for a certain percentage of Honorary Members who are not Law Enforcement Officers. Our meetings, which last about an hour, alternate between the first Saturday or Sunday of the month concluding with a ride. (weather permitting)
