We take great pride in how we organize and maintain a high level of safety standards for our members and guests of our rides. However, membership has its privileges. Members of our riding club have access to exclusive rides, social events, and discounts exclusive to our group from our different sponsors, and of course, our Club Royal Motos Riding Clubhouse! People interested in joining our club are subject to a prospecting process.

Our History

Club Royal Motos was founded in 2011 in the capital city of Rabat and has since expanded into other major cities not only in Morocco, namely Casablanca, Marrakech, Oujda, Tangier, Safi, and Agadir, but also internationally. In doing so, Club Royal Motos has opened a window of opportunity to Moroccan nationals residing abroad who, driven by their passion for motorcycles, have expressed a desire to join the club, be part of its mission, and take part in its humanitarian endeavors; Hence, the opening of chapters in France, Netherlands, and most recently the United States. Club Royal Motos strives and aims to organize and oversee the following activities in urban and rural regions year-around: • Social activities to benefit club members and their communities alike • Humanitarian and Charitable activities to benefit those in need • Caravans of medical doctors of various medical specialties • Blood drive caravans to donate blood. In addition to these charitable and humanitarian efforts, Club Royal Motos does organize events at a national as well as international level, aimed at forging long-lasting partnerships that promote brotherhood and friendship, with clubs and organizations of similar interests around the world. Ranking high up in the list of interests of Club Royal Motos is the need to instill in club members and their families a deep sense of patriotism by celebrating the various national holidays such as National Throne Day and the Green March, amongst others. Since its inception, Club Royal Motos has attached great importance and allocated resources to celebrating the “Green March” national holiday by organizing the Annual “Green March International Tour – Motorcycles”. As such, This annual international tour has taken Club Royal Motos’ members to various countries in other continents. The Africa Tour traversed Ivory Coast, Mali, Senegal, and Mauritania. The Europe Tour went to the Netherlands via Spain, France, Belgium, and Luxembourg. This trip culminated with a visit to the High Court of Lahaye in Amsterdam, which affirmed Morocco’s territorial sovereignty over Western Sahara.

Sharing in its members’ ambition and desire to visit all corners of the world, Club Royal Motos selected the United States as a destination for its seventh edition of the annual “Green March International Tour – Motorcycles”, bringing in riders from Morocco with their Morocco-registered bikes as well as riders from the Middle East and Europe to ride side by side with their fellow USbased Moroccan riders. The success of this tour of Florida was celebrated with the opening of the US chapter of Club Royal Motos USA, in Orlando.

Who we are:

We are a family made up of men and women dedicated to the love of the open road, camaraderie, and brotherhood. Our members come from all walks of life, some of us have ridden from coast to coast and some haven’t made it out of our zip code. One thing is certain: We Love Motorcycles! We love our community! We love our flag! There is more to being a member than just showing up once a month or for big events…much more. Club Members understand that membership is not limited to riding days. In fact, everything they say or do in public can and does affect the club. They also understand that if they get out of line, that they are subject to be counseled for their own good and for that of the club. Wearing a vest is more than getting together for good times. It also means getting together for the other times, too. They always look to give rather than to receive. All of this may seem very idealistic, and in some cases it's just that. But it is an ideal that we, as members of CRM USA, should always strive for, in principle and practice. Always be aware of the "Golden Rule" of conduct: If you give respect, you'll get respect. Levels of Commitment When someone earns their patch, they have also earned the right to wear it. That does not mean that he or she has reached the ultimate goal and from that point they can kick back and coast. Moving from guest to probation to “Member” is not climbing from the bottom to the top, but rather more like climbing a constantly ascending slope, and in time becoming a stronger and more committed brother or sister. A probate cruising through their probationary period and later becoming a member and earning their vest is merely a recognition of what they have demonstrated along the way. In this fashion, the more senior the member is in the club and the more they experience, the more of a mentor, brother or sister they will be to the next man / woman of good character whose life is steered to the path of motorcycle brotherhood.

Why the rules?

there are strict and stringent rules to ensure that no member steps out of line or acts in a way that jeopardizes the safety of other members of the club or other motorists. It ensures that they know what they have signed up for and under all circumstances uphold the concepts that the club promotes. It also allows the motorcycle club to only select those members that would prove to be a perfect fit for the club as a whole. The vest is and always remains property of the club. As such, If you happen to lose your membership in the club, you must surrender your vest to the club. Similarly, a member who decides to quit the club voluntarily must also leave behind his / her vest. Active Member. All active members must be at least 18 years of age, must have a working, street legal motorcycle and must possess a valid driver’s license with a cycle endorsement from the state in which they reside. Active members who pay dues will possess all the rights and benefits of being a member of CRM, including the right to vote and hold office. An active member includes a member who has lost the ability to ride and any active member’s spouse, who joins as a passenger, still remains an active member. If something happens to the driver the spouse will maintain voting rights and can hold office.
