About the Green Knights (GKMMC)

The Green Knights Motorcycle Club (TM) is a 501 (c)(3) Military Motorcycle Club (MMC) (TM) that was formed back in late 1999 and formally recognized in early 2000 at McGuire AFB, New Jersey. It was the idea of Adam Buehler to organize base motorcyclists for activities and to bring awareness to DoD riders and to individuals who do not ride. With the aid of the base MSF instructor,
Jeff Richards they were about to embark on a journey that they could have never imagined.
The two set out to organize and create a club where riders can get together, discuss issues of the base, fight for biker rights, help each other, participate in charity events, and enjoy going on rides. Most of all, enjoy the ride and the shared common interest. After gathering up a handful of riders from the base, they were able to form the first chapter of the Green Knights at McGuire AFB, NJ. It was a start of a slowly growing trend that has erupted into not just the Air Force but across the board of the military. Our by-laws, policies, and mentorship outlines have become the basis of the AF current policy to have a motorcycle club on every base. Currently there are over 80 chapters in the US AF, Army, and even the Royal Air Force, Irish Defense Force, and now the Canadian Forces of Canada.
The club was designed and maintained for all Military/ DoD riders. We do not recruit we accept and our members range from active duty, retirees, dependants, and DoD civilians. Members are just required to ride safe and have fun.

The Green Knights work hand and hand with the Wing Safety Office and Security Forces to help riders retain their rights and still follow the regulations set forth by the Federal, State, and local bases regulations. First and foremost the Green Knights stand for SAFETY. Our Safety Director keeps the club updated on Department Of Defense, Department Of Transportation, and local changes to traffic regulations. The Executive Board also disseminates these changes to non-club members. We fight for motorcyclists rights on base and had our first annual Motorcycle Awareness Ride this past spring, to let people know we're out there (lots of us).

The Green Knights do not discriminate against any type of motorcycle or scooter. We are always looking for new members. If you are a military, retired, DoD, or Military Contractor motorcycle rider.
