Empire City Motorcycle Club, Inc. of New York City, was founded by a group of twelve motorcycle riders in October, 1964 as a motorcycle owner/rider club. We are the oldest ongoing gay riding organization in the country and a vital part of the gay community in the New York metropolitan area.

Club events actively promote both the sport of motorcycling and brotherhood in our community. Group rides, scheduled throughout the riding season, provide the opportunity to explore regional riding venues and to enjoy the camaraderie of the group experience. Social events are held to both bring the members of the organization closer together and to help others get to know the membership.

As part of the ongoing commitment to safety, Empire City Motorcycle Club has sponsored and participated in Motorcycle Safety Foundation rider training programs. Our group rides, led by our Road Captain, always emphasize safe group riding techniques.
