The IOMC was started
by a few hardcore bikers in a garage”. These bikers came from
different backgrounds and walks of life. They had a desire to
share brotherhood and socialize together as a group of men
sharing a like mindset. That is how the IOMC was started and
how it is today. This is the heritage of the IOMC. We refuse
to be dictated to by anyone as to whom or what we have as
members.
We have learned many
things about the MC world over the past years. We respect all
clubs and support those that support us. We are independent and
choose to mind our own business. We started that way and we
continue that way.
We run our club by
the very same MC rules established over 50 years ago by
motorcycle clubs. We are not 1%ers. We are not a HOG chapter
but most of our members do belong to HOG and many outside
organizations such as ABATE and the Patriot Riders. We have
chapters in many states. We have a strong brotherhood between
all chapters. We are independent therefore we do not belong to
any associations. We find we are so busy with our own events
and rides that we are not involved with any other
organizations. We choose to have our own charity work that we
do to benefit the community not to make headlines or make
ourselves look good. We are law abiding, like minded men
brought together by our common love for our motorcycles, riding
and desire for true brotherhood. We have our own clubhouses, we
have the same probationary and hang around traditions that MC’s
established many years ago and we stand together as brothers in
our club.
Those who have rode
with us, partied with us, or know us, know we are bikers. Some
have chosen a different road because we do not waiver from our
core values. We ride, party and mind our own business. We do
not create problems for our community or fellow bikers. We
participate in charities that we feel benefit our communities
and we support our own. We are veterans, active duty military,
construction workers, truck drivers, businessmen, cops, feds,
cooks, and any other occupation you can think of. We are about
motorcycles, brotherhood and enjoying the biker lifestyle not
about what you do for a living.
We are what we say
we are and nothing more or nothing less. If you are law abiding,
desire strong brotherhood and riding a motorcycle is not a solo
event, maybe we are for you. If you are looking for something
other than what we stand for then we are not for you. We are
constantly asked “What is the IOMC?’ Don’t listen to the
sidewalk commandos or the weekend warriors. Come by and meet us
then you decide what the IOMC is and if you have what it takes
to be a brother of the IOMC.
