Who are The Blue Knights? 
The Blue Knights started in April of 1974, when a small group of Bangor-Brewer, Maine, Law Enforcement officers organized a local recreational motorcycle club. In following years the organization exploded into an International Motorcycle Club with chapters in the United States, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Sweden, Belgium, England, Switzerland and the Netherlands. The Blue Knights have been very active throughout these countries on fund-raising projects such as The Make a Wish Foundation, The Heart Fund, Cystic Fibrosis, Ronald McDonald House, Children's wards in hospitals, Nursing Homes, Abused Women and Children Shelters, Handicapped Children's Camps, Cerebral Palsy and too many other charities to mention.
The Blue Knights joins law enforcement personnel around the world in a fraternal organization which includes federal, state, provincial, county and local police; all of whom enjoy recreational motorcycling. The Club is dedicated to improving the motorcycling image, promote safety and promote motorcycling as a family recreation, and just having fun.
Who belongs to OHIO XII? In Chapter XII we have over 70 members. We all come from Greater Cleveland and the surrounding suburbs. The Knights are part of the law enforcement departments here in Ohio, but we are more than just officers who like to ride motorcycles. We like to think that our chapter is deeper than that. We share a sense of camaraderie and a huge sense of an extended family, especially when one is in need. Should one of us break down, or even need some help moving, or something as simple as the chapter having a special function, we band together to get the task done. Whatever the case may be, it sure feels good to know that a person in need only has to look as far as the next chapter member for that help. If you are involved in law enforcement and would like to ride with us, or maybe you aren't, you are always welcome to ride in our group as long as you are a responsible rider. Please check our page for upcoming events & rides to join us. Thanks for stopping in! RIDE WITH PRIDE Feel free to email us at: bkohxii@yahoo.com I am currently searching for a new web hosting agency. This company only lets me use their programs for editing and they are not user friendly. So......the look of the site may change yet again folks!
