What we’re about
In case you are not familiar with GEARS RC, we are a local family motorcycle riding organization founded in 2022 with our roots going back decades when we were a chapter of a national riding organization known as STAR Riding and Touring. We became one of their top chapters and won several awards for our success with the organization.
After several of the original founders of STAR retired, we at the Riverside chapter collectively decided to keep our torch burning and GEARS RC was born. To this day we have nothing but respect for the remaining chapters and members of STAR.
At GEARS RC, we are not a motorcycle club, GEARS is a RIDING CLUB known within the community as an "RC". We are an association of like-minded people. We wear leather and ride motorcycles, but there is something unique about GEARS RC. The organization’s basis is the fantastic members that make up and contribute to the GEARS RC family. The People, the family structure and the values that GEARS RC represents are the “Soul of GEARS”.
We are an organization that accepts people from all walks of life, who enjoy motorcycles. We strive to promote a positive environment of fun, safe riding and camaraderie within the motorcycle community. We pride ourselves on having enough discipline and professionalism to keep this motorcycling hobby of ours safe, but we are casual enough that we can have a good time and relax. After all, motorcycles were made to be enjoyed, and that's just what we do!
On the morning of rides, there will be a quick GEARS RC meeting and pre-ride briefing We encourage first time guests! No matter what you ride from HOGs to Hondas and of course Yamaha's ;), 2 wheels or 3, we’re all here to have fun! We have a very strong RIDING CLUB filled with respectful motorcyclists from all walks of life.
No matter what your level of riding experience is you will find plenty of friends with GEARS RC! If you aren’t up for the entire ride, no worries! Riders are free to break off at any time.
*Rider Requirements: For your safety and that of the group, we require that you show up with a DOT helmet, gloves and appropriate footwear. Please arrive with full tank of gas. We do require all riders to have a valid motorcycle endorsement and insurance.
**Please note GEARS RC does not condone the consumption of alcohol on our rides for obvious reasons.
