Elks Lodge First. Riders Second. Service Always
Every Elks Rider is Elk before anything else. Our commitment is to our Lodge, our communities, our veterans, our youth, and the principles of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. We ride not for recognition, but to serve, support, and strengthen our Lodges while building friendships that last a lifetime.
Our motorcycles may bring us together, but our commitment to the Elks is what defines us. Every ride supports a purpose. Every member represents their Lodge. Every mile is an opportunity to serve.
Our Guiding Principles
Our first commitment is to the Elks. Our second is to the road. Our mission is service.
Before the leather comes to the Lodge. Before the ride comes the mission.
We do not ride for attention. We ride to serve.
The Lodge comes first. Charity drives us. Fellowship keeps us together.
Our patch represents our commitment to the Elks before it represents our love of riding.
Without the Elks Lodge, there are no Riders. Every ride begins with service.
Being an Elks Rider is about more than motorcycles. It is about serving our Lodges, supporting our communities, honoring our veterans, and building lifelong friendships. We are Elks Lodge First. Riders Second. Service Always.
Elks Lodge First. Service Always. Riding Together.
