Supporting Never Dead Riders in Their Fight Against Cancer

Our Partnership with Never Dead Riders

Never Dead Riders (NDR) is a group of motorcycle enthusiasts dedicated to helping members of the Tri-Lakes community who are suffering financial hardship due to the costs of medical care related to their fight against cancer. Several riding (and non-riding) fundraising events are held throughout the year and then checks are written directly to those in need.

If you would like to join the group on their next ride and/or would like to donate to the group, you can do so via their official website. NDR is a 501(c)(3) entity, so all donations are tax exempt.

About Never Dead Riders Group

Never Dead Riders Group (NDRG) was formed in Monument, Colorado in January 2022 as an official non-profit organization representing a family of motorcycle riders in Southern Colorado. Their mission extends far beyond the love of riding—they're dedicated to raising funds for cancer-fighting families while celebrating the lifestyle and American freedom that comes with motorcycle riding.

Mission and Values

The organization raises funds through rides, events, and sponsors, creating a powerful network of support for families battling cancer in the local community. While most members ride American motorcycles like Harley Davidson and Indian Motorcycle, they welcome all motorcycles—as long as riders can keep pace with the group during their carefully planned rides.

This inclusive philosophy aligns perfectly with Yak's MMX's own belief that "if your knuckles are in the breeze, we don't care what you ride." Both organizations understand that the motorcycle community transcends brand loyalty when it comes to supporting fellow riders and their families.

How Never Dead Riders Makes a Difference

NDR members enjoy a schedule of carefully planned and coordinated rides throughout the riding season and events all year long. These aren't just social gatherings—each event serves a greater purpose of raising critical funds for families facing the overwhelming financial burden of cancer treatment.

The organization operates on a direct-impact model: funds raised through their various activities go straight to community members in need, providing immediate financial relief for medical expenses, treatment costs, and related hardships that accompany a cancer diagnosis.

Getting Involved with Never Dead Riders

Membership and Participation

New riders are invited to join a meeting and ride, with the first ride offered free of charge. A $50 annual membership fee provides access to all meetings, rides, events, and opportunities to serve the community. Members also have the option to purchase small and large patches to show their support and affiliation with the group.

Whether you're a seasoned rider or new to the motorcycle community, Never Dead Riders welcomes participants who share their passion for riding and their commitment to helping others. The group provides an excellent way to connect with like-minded riders while making a meaningful difference in the lives of cancer patients and their families.

Community Partnerships

Yak's MMX is proud to be listed among NDR's 2024-25 sponsors, joining other local businesses that support this vital community organization. This partnership reflects our shared commitment to the motorcycle community and our belief in giving back to those who need support during difficult times.

The collaboration between Yak's MMX and Never Dead Riders strengthens the entire Tri-Lakes motorcycle community, ensuring that riders have both the mechanical support they need for their bikes and the community support they need during life's challenges.
