Well, we have the perfect way for you to support us, while fulfilling your needs. We are currently in the middle of a fundraiser and could use your help to reach our goal. You can scan the qr code and order directly from there, or just message us and we can take your order. Thank you in advance.
Tuesday night’s ride took us to New Haven for their National Night Out at Schnelker Park — and the K9 demo stole the show. 🐾🚔 Great turnout, great cause, and a great reminder of why nights like this matter: connecting our community with the first responders who show up for us every day. Thanks for having us, New Haven PD!
New Haven, this spring. 🏍️
Good people, good bikes, and days worth remembering.
This is what Chapter 1 is all about.
Last night’s Tuesday ride took a turn we didn’t expect — and it’s exactly why we do this.
A new supporter asked if we’d ride by his relative’s house for Clint, who’s currently on hospice, just to rev our engines and lift his spirits from his bedroom window. That was the plan.
Then two of our riders got held up at a gas station on the way. So the rest of us stopped, waited… and ended up walking into Clint’s home instead. What started as a quick ride-by turned into real conversation at his bedside. Our chaplain prayed over him. His family was already outside waiting when we pulled up, and their gratitude said everything.
We ride for a lot of reasons. Last night reminded us that sometimes the most important part of the ride isn’t the miles — it’s who’s waiting at the end of them.
🙏 Keep Clint and his family in your thoughts.

A look back at recent rides together — the roads, the miles, and the crew that makes it worth it. This is Freedom Riders Chapter 1.
