The Memphis Motorcycle Club is a family orientated group
of avid motorcyclists with varied interests and occupations, but with one thing
in common, motorcycles. MMC members are involved in many phases of the sport.
Our membership rolls have included street riders, dirt riders, amateur and
professional racers, nationally ranked experts and even a few people of
questionable riding ability. We currently have 173 members.
The only requirements for joining MMC are that you love
motorcycles, have an honest interest in the people who ride them, and be a
member of the American Motorcyclist Association. Our club is one of some 2,500
chartered AMA clubs across the USA. The AMA is a race sanctioning body as well
as a membership services organization, governing all aspects of the sport. We
are all concerned with the pressing problems such as land closure, the public
image of cyclists, and any legislation concerning motorcycles.
We also like to have a good time, but not at the expense
of others. This basic idea works because the MMC has been active since 1928 and
has seen a lot of changes over 7 decades. We put on dirt bike events, kids
races, street rides, camping trips, organized trail rides and our annual
charity event has become the pride of our club. We raised $5000 for the Make a
Wish Foundation this fall, and were able to give a child his/her wish. The MMC
stands for all the AMA stands for but on a more personal basis. We believe you
will find organized cycling more fun and isn't that what it's all about?
In order to join the MMC you must:
1. Own a motorcycle or four-wheeler
2. Be willing to help
the club put on events
3. Be voted in by the majority of current active
members
The membership process is as follows:
You
need to attend one of our monthly meetings in order to be nominated by one of
our current members. Once you are nominated, you will need to be voted in
by the majority of active members at the meeting. Once you are voted in
you will be given an application for membership which will need to be completed
and turned in with your dues.
Dues: $75.00 Individual $100.00 Family
If you are interested in joining the MMC, our regular
meetings are the second Tuesday of each month at Coletta's Restaurant on
Appling Road in Cordova, TN at 7:00 P.M. If you have any questions, contact our
president at: president@memphismotorcycleclub.com
