| BGBB Mission Statement |
- The Brotherhood of the Grey Beard Bikers exist for the purpose of preserving and promoting the Biker life-style and is dedicated to promoting peace and harmony among all clubs and independent bikers.
- We also endeavor to educate the younger or uneducated riders who express a desire to learn about the Biker life-style.
- We strive to teach the true meaning of Brotherhood, loyalty, respect and protocols within the Biker life-style and the fact that all the above is something that is taught but can never be bought.
- We have members from all around the United States, Canada and several other countries, some of whom are among what we describe as the "wise ones". These are older grey beards that have paid their dues, have been riding for 40 plus years, some much longer and know the life-style.
- We go on the assumption that you are never too old or wise to learn something new or relearn something you may have forgotten. We learn from the wise ones everyday and are proud to call them Brother.
- If this sounds like something you are interested in, or if you would just like to learn more about the lifestyle and Bikers in general please go to our BGBB Forum and introduce yourself. You will always be welcome on the BGBB Forum, the only thing that is not tolerated is club bashing or bad mouthing any club or individual. (Be respectful)

| Please note: |
| Although we welcome participation from all who wish to do so, there are no guarantees that you will be
brought up for a vote for membership. Please understand that sometimes a person just isn't a good fit. We will still continue to welcome your participation. |
| |
| And so..... |
| If you think you have what it takes and have made up your mind to make the life-time commitment to become a member of the
Brotherhood of the Grey Beard Bikers, simply go to the BGBB Forum and make your introductory post and then hang around so the Brothers can get to know you. After you've been posting on
the forum for a few months and we've gotten to know you, you may ask a full member to sponsor you for membership. If a member sponsors you a vote will be taken. The
vote must be a 75% 'yes' vote for you to become a member (so post and hang around until you feel ready). Down below you will find a button that will
take you to the BGBB FORUM. The BGBB Forum has just one basic rule - "RESPECT". We respect all clubs and their colors be they M/C, RC or 1%ers but would appreciate them not being mentioned
on the forum. Attitudes will not be tolerated and your entry (Forum or Guestbook) will be deleted. Now log on and enjoy. |
