Philosophy:
As
individuals, we share the fundamental passion to ride
motorcycles, but we are drawn to each of our own clubs by
our common traditions and heritage as members of the Jewish
faith. The common thread is our religion, regardless of the
degree and manner in which we choose to observe it. The
admission of a club for membership into the JMA is not
predicated upon the degree to which its members observes or
practices the Jewish faith, or by the brands of motorcycles
that its members may ride.
Mission:
The mission
of the Jewish Motorcyclists Alliance, and by extension the
Yahoo Groups forum — jewishbikersworldwide
(referred to as the JBW) — is to create a global internet
environment whereby members of the Jewish faith who ride
motorcycles can congregate to share and exchange ideas and
opinions about matters of concern to the Jewish community at
large, as well as issues specifically concerning motorcycles
and motorcycle riding.
At its core, the JMA focuses on its main identity: that of
motorcycling, however, it will encourage participation in
activities that will promote worthy educational and
charitable pursuits that are beneficial to the Jewish
community (and the broader non-Jewish community) in support
of the goals and aspirations of our people. Additionally,
the JMA will foster awareness and dissemination of news and
information related to motorcycling that we think will be of
interest to our members.
The JMA will make every effort to represent our faith and
heritage proudly with respect for all.
