Beachside Moto Club (BMC) is a motorcycle club based in Santa Monica, California, founded in 2021. With a team of 20 members, BMC hosts monthly Saturday group motorcycle rides that bring together a diverse and inclusive community of motorcyclists.
The rides typically attract between 100 and 150 motorcyclists and begin at a local mom-and-pop coffee shop where riders can socialize and meet new friends. From there, the group takes a parade ride to a different local establishment each month, where riders can celebrate and have lunch together in fun and welcoming atmosphere.
BMC is focused on creating a community-oriented experience for motorcyclists and provides a friendly and social environment for riders to find camaraderie and enjoy the sport together. Whether you are a seasoned rider or just getting started, BMC's rides offer an excellent opportunity to meet other riders and explore new routes and destinations.
