Ride With Pride
The Blue Knights is a fraternal organization of Law Enforcement Officers who share a passion for motorcycle riding. The parent organization (Blue Knights International) was formed in the Bangor/Brewer Maine cities in 1974 by seven Law Enforcement Officers who rode motorcycles together. In addition to hosting rides and runs for members and their families, the Blue Knights are very active in fund raising to benefit charitable organizations. As of June 1, June 2009, we have 599 chapters and almost 20,000 members in 29 countries.
As of 1 June 2009 Blue Knights have donated to numerous charities; contributing time in the amount of $4,061,030, goods with an estimated value of $629,532.74 and $6,867,910.49 in cash for a total of $11,558,473.23 (USD)
As a member gets involved in Blue Knights they soon find the bond of Law Enforcement Officers is cemented by the extra bond provided by our love of motorcycling. There is no membership distinction as to rank, type of law enforcement department, or type of motorcycle. Just Blue Knights. Proof of our diversity shows in our leaders. Our founding fathers were from seven different departments.
