The Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® (CVMA®) began as an idea in early 2001.  45 Veterans who shared combat experience and enjoyed riding motorcycles decided to form an organization devoted to helping veterans.  The CVMA® first appeared officially as a non-profit organization around 1 May 2001.  We continue to focus on our primary mission of Helping Veterans while we continue to source membership from combat veterans who ride motorcycles.

 

Arizona’s first CVMA® Chapter took root in 2006 with a few veterans residing in the Phoenix area.  Jeff Moore was elected as the first Arizona State Representative for CVMA® and Arizona became the 32nd state recognized to stand up a chapter by the National CVMA® Board.
