We are a group of FIREFIGHTERS who own and ride motorcycles.

Our Aim.

The aim of the group is to promote a community amongst motorcycle riding FIREFIGHTERS, get out and about on our motorcycles and raise money for those affected by fire related injuries and for Fire Service related charities.

Colours.

Predominantly yellow and silver with red border on black background (The colours of the majority of Front Line Fire Appliances).

The Red denotes the thin red line, Black the sooty nature of our job, the Yellow and Silver reflects the Hi-Vis markings on our fire gear.

Patches.

FIREFIGHTERS in yellow and silver on a black background with a red border laid out in a straight line text bar positioned on the front left breast. This is worn by all members regardless of membership status.

No support patches for any other club allowed. Other Fire Service related patches can be worn as long as they are relevant to the individual and don’t cause offence.

No location patches or patches that could be construed as claiming a territory or location will be worn alongside, below or above the FIREFIGHTERS patch.

Structure.

Committee consists of a President, Secretary and Messman (Treasurer). We have divisional reps in various locations of the United Kindom for contact purposes only. Each Divisional Rep will Form part of the National Committee.

Members in Countries other than the UK will select a National Rep who will also form part of the Committee.

The club has its base and roots in Kent but we will have divison in other areas where membership numbers warrant.

Assistance will be given to ensure interactions and good relationships with local clubs is maintained where possible.
