About Us
How it all started
The National Association of Buffalo Soldiers and Troopers Motorcycle Club (NABSTMC) was established in October of 1993 in Chicago, Illinois by Kenneth “Dream Maker Thomas. Dream Maker founded the NABSTMC for the purpose of fostering unity and fellowship with motorcyclists in the Chicago area. Since then, the NABSTMC has grown from one chapter to over 115 nationwide and overseas.
Our Club
We are a 501(c)(3) Non Profit Organization. WE ARE NOT A 1% CLUB AND CLAIM NO TERRITORY. HOWEVER WE TAKE OUR CLUB AND MEMBERSHIP SERIOUSLY. Our colors represent a long history and we wear them with pride and respect. Our colors pay homage to African Americans of the 9th and 10th Calvary who sacrificed their lives so that our country could be what it is today. They are a badge of courage, sacrifice and honor as are those who continue to serve. The National Association of Buffalo Soldiers & Troopers Motorcycle Club (N.A.B.S.T.M.C) is an organization of professional men and women that are dedicated to the sport of motorcycle riding and safety. Our objective is to educate those that are unfamiliar with the racism, sacrifices and hardships that the Buffalo Soldiers of the 9th and 10th U.S. Cavalries had to endure. Our vision is to instill this knowledge into the minds and hearts of our youth of today so that we can motivate them to become better citizens and leaders of tomorrow. We feel by doing this the legacy of the Buffalo Soldiers of the past will live on forever and shall not be forgotten. In addition, we “do good in the ‘hood through community service such as, feeding the homeless, awarding scholarships for graduating high school seniors and riding our motorcycles in support of organizations such as the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
Why We Do It
It is our duty to tell the story of the Buffalo Soldiers and because of their past, we have a future. So, as you read the information below, pass it on to all who are willing to listen but most of all reach out to our youth so that they will know of the sacrifices of the Buffalo Soldiers.
