About Canadian Motorcycle Cruisers      

  • 1.  Are there any  membership fees required?

    NO. There are no fees or dues charged for joining CMC. It is not uncommon though for the various chapters to have fundraising activities to fund the activities of the chapters and for donations to charities.

    2.  Do I have to have a motorcycle license to be a rider in the group?

    Yes. CMC adheres to the traffic laws. Group riding is a type of precision riding therefore for the safety of all involved it is necessary to have the experience that a full motorcycle license without restrictions offers. A fully completed motorcycle license means that there are NO restrictions on riding times, speed limits, and no required riding with a chaperon, here in BC that is a class 6 license.

    3.  As a member of the Canadian Motorcycle Cruisers, what can I expect?

    CMC is a family oriented riding and social club. You will be offered opportunities to ride with such good friends you will begin to see them as family.
    You will be offered assistance in improving your motorcycle riding skills through mentoring and training that is offered free of charge for Group Riding and being a Road Captain.
  • CMC members have access to discounts for a variety of items, including nation-wide clothing and hotel chains.
  • CMC is an internet based club with all our communication on the club's national internet forum. Each Chapter has its own area on the forum for club business and communications. These will include chapter rides, general information, and member updates, as well as for humour and chatting between friends. 

    4.  What is expected of me as a member of Canadian Motorcycle Cruisers?

    First and foremost, participate and become involved. We go on short evening rides, and long distance rides that take us to other towns and provinces, and we have social events such as dinners and multi-chapter meets. The more you attend, the more fun you have.
    We welcome every kind of motorcycle in our riding club. The mandate of our riding club is: It doesn't matter the brand, as long as you ride! We have three simple rules: no alcohol on group rides; ride safely; and always be nice and have fun!
    In order to keep up with the pace of traffic, you should be prepared to drive up to 10km over the posted speed limit. We often ride in the northern areas of Vancouver Island, or on the mainland where speed limits are posted at 110 kms/hour. Therefore members need to have a motorcycle able to go 120 km/hr for a prolonged period.

    5.  What is the Canadian Motorcycle Cruisers position on drinking alcohol on rides?

    We have a zero tolerance policy. It’s that simple.

    6.  Am I required to wear a “patch”?

    No.  We are a riding club and have a CMC crest which is referred to as the “Madison”. The Madison is named after the 10 year old girl that designed it for the CMC in a contest. The wearing of the Madison is voluntary but is strongly encouraged as there are a number of events where wearing it is required (parades, and some regional and national functions). That said most of our members choose to wear the Madison and wear it with pride.
