Annual Ride to Big Bear

Come join us on a relaxed and scenic motorcycle ride to Big Bear. This will be an enjoyable summer ride with amazing roads and views that have made Southern California a world renowned tourist destination.

Prior to the ride, we will decide on a restaurant, there are several options depending on the size of the group.

In case you are not familiar with GEARS RC, we are a local family motorcycle riding club founded in 2022 with our roots going back decades when we were a chapter of a national riding organization. We became one of the top chapters in the organization and won several awards for our success.

GEARS is not a motorcycle club, GEARS is a RIDING CLUB known in the community as an "RC". We are an association of like-minded people. We wear leather and ride motorcycles, but there is something unique about GEARS RC. The organization’s basis is the fantastic members that make up and contribute to the GEARS RC family. The People, the Family structure and the Values that GEARS RC represents are the “Soul of GEARS”.

We are an organization that accepts people from all walks of life, who enjoy motorcycles. We strive to promote a positive environment of fun, safe riding and camaraderie within the motorcycle community. We pride ourselves on having enough discipline and professionalism to keep this motorcycling hobby of ours safe, but we are casual enough that we can have a good time and relax. After all, motorcycles were made to be enjoyed, and that's just what we do!

On the morning of the ride, there will be a quick GEARS RC meeting and pre-ride briefing starting at 8:30am with kickstands up at 9:15. If we have time we usually have a 50/50 drawing or sometimes we hold a raffle giving away motorcycle relate products because... its FUN! We welcome first time guests. No matter what you ride from HOGs to Hondas and everything in between, 2 wheels or 3, we’re all here to have fun! We have a very strong RIDING CLUB filled with respectful motorcyclists from all walks of life. If you are new to riding, we're here to help, if you have been around the block we welcome your experience. So, no matter what your level of riding experience is you will find plenty of friends with GEARS RC! If you aren’t up for the entire ride, no worries! Riders are free to break off at any time.

*Rider Requirements: For your safety and that of the group, we require that you show up with a DOT helmet, gloves and appropriate footwear. Please arrive with full tank of gas. We do require all riders to have a valid motorcycle endorsement and insurance.

**Please note GEARS RC does not condone the consumption of alcohol on our rides for obvious reasons.
