The Blue Knights® International Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club, is a non-profit fraternal organization consisting of active and retired law enforcement officers who enjoy riding motorcycles. In the Spring of 1974, several law enforcement officers* from the Bangor, Maine (USA) area met and formed a small, local motorcycle club. 

Soon, Blue Knight chapters were being formed in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and beyond. With the addition of Canada, and later Australia, the Blue Knights became an international organization.

Our charitable organization has contributed over $17.5 million dollars toward various charities throughout the world since statistics were kept.

Our organization is comprised of active, and retired law enforcement officers and we strive to promote our organization as being a family fraternity. Spouses and children often accompany our members to the various rides and functions.

Members can ride a bike of their choosing, and are not mandated to riding an American made motorcycle (ie. Harley Davidson).

We do not have a probationary period for members, or prospects, and women are equal in our organization not only as members, but in leadership positions locally and internationally within the Blue Knights.

* Our Founding Fathers are: Joel Rudom, Bill Robinson, Doug Miner, Ed Gallant, Mike Hall, Chuck Gesner, Wayne Labree, Chuck Shuman.

In the 40+ years since we have grown to 650 chapters, 19000+ members in 17 conferences within 30 countries.

  The WA VI chapter is based in Olympia and serves Thurston, Lewis, Grays Harbor and S. Pierce counties.  Agencies currently represented by our members are Tacoma P.D., Olympia P.D., Thurston Co. S.O., WSP, NCIS, CID, Asotin Co. S.O. and U.S. Marshal Service.  There's room for more, come join us.
