The Volunteer Riders motorcycle club was formed in 1970 by Knoxville area off-road motorcycle enthusiasts and is still going strong today. The club is made up of over 60 trail riding motorcyclists from throughout East Tennessee. We believe in having fun, promoting a positive image of the sport, and responsible use and care of our outdoor environment.

We are a group of individuals who share a common interest in the sport of off-road motorcycling. Our club is completely focused on that topic. Our definition of “off-road motorcycling” includes activities such as trail riding, hare scrambles, enduro, hard enduro, trials, dual sport, adventure and so on. We also share a strong interest in discovering, building and maintaining single track trails and other types of off-road courses. In short, if it’s off-road motorcycling, we have an interest in it.

The role of the club is to coordinate opportunities where like-minded individuals can meet, communicate and interface with one another, and most importantly RIDE together.
