Empire City Motorcycle Club:
60 Years of Riding & Brotherhood!


Empire City Motorcycle Club, Inc. of New York City, was founded by a group of twelve motorcycle riders in October, 1964 as a motorcycle owner/rider club. We are the oldest ongoing gay all riding organisation in the country and a vital part of the gay community in New York metropolitan area.

You may attend with Zoom teleconference at https://bit.ly/ECMC-MEET (this link works for both meetings!)
