We are the National Association of Buffalo Soldiers and Troopers Motorcycle Club (NABSTMC):
In 1993, the National Association of Buffalo Soldiers and Troopers Motorcycle Club was founded in Chicago by
Ken “Dream Maker” Thomas to socialize men and women who shared similar ideals and the common bond of
motorcycling.
The name was chosen to uphold and perpetuate the heroic legend of the original Buffalo Soldiers and the
legacy of the African American soldiers who followed.
In December 2005, National Association of Buffalo Soldiers and Troopers Motorcycle Club of Memphis Tn, was
established as the First Tennessee Chapter and the 44 th chapter of the National Association of Buffalo Soldiers
and Troopers Motorcycle Club a 501(c)3 non-profit organization of Americans who share a common interest in
the sport of motorcycling and the study of African Americans History and the betterment of Tennesseans. We
ride under the name of the Buffalo Soldiers to express our pride in the decades following the Civil War. We
tell the story of the courageous Buffalo Soldiers and the brave Native American Chiefs and warriors that they
fought during the settlement of the American west. We strive to honor this heritage by organizing and
participating in various community service programs such as St Jude’s, Le Bonheur Childrens Hospital, Feed the
Needy, awarding scholarships to local high school seniors and other local projects that enhance and promotes
social, cultural and ethnic awareness.
National Association of Buffalo Soldiers and Troopers Motorcycle Club of Memphis TN, strives to be more than
a motorcycle club. Our goal is to be an organization that services the community as mentors, partners and
leaders.
