View a Sample Issue Go to the Newsletter PageThe BMW Owners Club of San Diego, Inc. (BMWOCSD) was originally formed in 1970, and has been meeting and having fun riding BMW motorcycles on the roads of San Diego County and the world ever since.
Learn MoreIt's all about the bikes. We ride BMW bikes but riders of all bikes are welcome.
One of our annual rides is to the California Central Coast. It's fun and full of camaraderie. This ride one from 2020 had us stopped for a short break northeast of the Santa Barbara for the views and some great laughs.
We ride wherever and on whatever the bikes takes up. Here we stop and check directions on a routine central California ride near Porterville.
A small group rode to Utah and stop on the side of the road in the snowy mountains to check out the scenery.
We lead organized New Member Rides (NMR) through the local San Diego County roads. New members get to meet old members and share their experiences.
On some special occasions, we will get together and socialize without our bikes. This is a San Diego Hornblower cruise on the San Diego Bay marking 50 years of riding as a club.
We do more than just ride. Each month we have Full Moon Dinner social events, many times meeting in a local San Diego restaurant to wine and dine. But here we mixed it up and met on a member's yatch and wined and dined while cruising around the bay!
We meet each month for our membership meetings for dinner and updates from the Board. Frequently, the club will sponsor a special talk from others in the motorcycle industry.
Throughout the year, there are annual membership only events. This is our Oktoberfest rally, hitting a little dirt and then spending a couple of nights in the mountains and cabins with a roaring BBQ.
At the end of the year, we all get together at Tom Ham's Lighthouse for a Holiday Party, regaling in the memories of the year going out and welcoming in the next new year.
'Nuff said.
Thanks to Klaus!
Regardless of all the BMWOCSD club activities, in the end it's about riding to places with friends and creating new memories.
Paid annually for all these benefits
