COMBAT VETS MOTORCYCLE ASSOCIATION® , CA CVMA® 33-10
Proudly Serving:
The Tri-County Area
(Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles Counties)
**Active Duty Members Welcome**
Our Mission
The Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® was founded in 2001 and our Chapter 33-10 was formed in April of 2018. Our mission, like that of ALL CVMA® chapters, is to support our fellow brothers and sisters-in-arms who have defended our country and our freedoms. Our motto is “Veterans Helping Veterans”.
Part of our support is helping veteran-care facilities provide food, shelter and other assistance to veterans in need. We also welcome home active-duty personnel from tours overseas with a heartfelt “Thank you” and “Welcome home”, to show how much we appreciate their service and the sacrifices they made.
Additionally, we support the Patriot Guard Riders when they serve as funeral escort for our fallen servicemen, active duty or retired. It's an honor to commemorate the lives of those who stood up when our country needed them. Escorting them to their final resting place is a honor we take very solemnly.
We have plan for a variety of other events, fundraisers, and outreach to show that we are always Veterans Helping Veterans.
If you are a combat veteran in the Los Angeles, Orange, or Ventura county areas, who enjoy the motorcycle lifestyle and wants to join a band of brothers to help replace that feeling of brotherhood you had in the service, CVMA® 33-10 might be a good fit for you. Contact the CO or the Chapter Secretary for more info.

FULL MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA
Thank you for your interest in the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association®. First, we are NOT a motorcycle club (MC) and have no desire to become one. We are a VETERANS ASSOCIATION that enjoys riding motorcycles, and ride we do! We ride to support our group and to assist other organizations supporting veteran’s issues.
If you are here to support veterans then this is your association! We are looking for active participants to veterans’ issues; not patch hunters that do not believe in our mission, “Vets Helping Vets”.
