KofC RIDERS!

Welcome Brother!

Are you a Catholic Gentleman, a member of the Knights of Columbus, or interested in becoming a Knight? Do you ride a motorcycle? Are you Interested in joining the KofC Riders?

     Many in the Catholic community are familiar with the Knights of Columbus, but how many know about the organizations within called KofC Riders?
 
     KofC Riders is open to any member of the Knights of Columbus, who is in good standing within their council, who owns a motorcycle (of any kind, 2 or 3 wheel) or anticipates owning one within six months.
 
     Our mission is simple: Evangelization to the Catholic Community and sharing our  love of Christ and the teachings of our “Holy Mother Church”. We just happen to do it while riding on motorcycles.

     Our motto is clear: “IN GOD WE TRUST AND LIVE OUR FAITH”.

     It’s not about us, it’s about sharing our faith and helping others. “We are doing what we love by riding, so, why not do it, and help others at the same time. Plus, you meet some really great people and can be part of a great group that many are looking for.”
 
     Help us and our beloved order to grow and prosper. We provided an escort for the “Silver Rose” icon during its journey in Alabama and look forward to the upcoming visit in September. 

    New members are always welcome, there is NO FEE to join the KofC Riders, the only cost to you, will be a black leather riding vest, for KofC Riders events, as well as the cost of acquiring the required patches. We encourage our  members to wear their vest as much as possible

**PLEASE NOTE**: You will be required to provide valid current Traveling Card and proof of Insurance upon request as part of the application process.​

The tournament will be held on 05 April 2025 at Fox Ridge Golf Course, located in Ozark, Alabama.
