The American Legion Riders (ALR) is not a motorcycle club, but rather an association of like-minded Legion Family members who enjoy family activities and the opportunity to advance the aims and goals of The American Legion.
Riders promote the honorable nature of military service, providing honor guards and flag lines to local military funerals, patriotic parades and other memorial events each year.
American Legion Riders programs are well known for their charitable work, which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for local children’s hospitals, schools, Veterans homes, severely wounded service members and scholarships.
Since 2006, Riders nationwide have participated in The American Legion Legacy Run to annually raise money for the Legacy Scholarship Fund, established to provide scholarships to children of U.S. military personnel killed since Sept. 11, 2001.
Our local Post 1187 Riders have participate in many local events such as Veteran funeral escorts, Dignified Honors Motorcades, memorial services such as wreath laying and flag placement ceremonies, local parades and various runs and events around Colorado.
