Who we are
Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® Georgia Chapter 25-3 is comprised of members in the Northwest Georgia Mountain region.
Our meetings are held in the Dahlonega/Ellijay area.
We invite all veterans and combat veterans to visit with us.
Please note that we are an ASSOCIATION and NOT a MOTORCYCLE CLUB (MC). Although we may be in a geographic area, we do not claim territory. We do not have a club house. The patch on our back is one piece.
Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association®
Mission Statement
We are an Association of Combat Veterans from all branches of the United States Armed Forces who ride motorcycles as a hobby. As a registered 501(c)(19) veterans’ charity, our mission is to support and protect those who have defended our country and our freedoms. Our focus is to provide assistance and help to individual veterans, veteran care facilities, other veteran organizations and registered charities. We sponsor and participate in many veteran-related motorcycle (and other) charity events each year, and as a non-profit organization, donate to various veteran causes.
Our membership is comprised of Full Members (those with verified combat service), Supporter Members (those who have non-combat military service and have a strong dedication to helping veterans), and Auxiliary Members (Spouses of both Full and Support members). We have members from all 50 states and numerous countries abroad, including combat areas.
Meet the commander
On behalf of Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® Chapter 25-3, I’m honored to welcome you to our official website. We are a group of veterans who have proudly served in combat, and we share a deep bond forged by our service to our country and our love of motorcycling.
At CVMA® Chapter 25-3, our mission is grounded in supporting our fellow veterans, honoring the sacrifices made, and promoting the brotherhood and sisterhood that comes with having served in combat. We know that the experiences we’ve shared in service create connections that go beyond the military. Our chapter is a place where veterans come together—not only to ride, but to offer support, share experiences, and help one another through the unique challenges that come with life after service.
Through group rides, charity events, and community outreach, we stay active in supporting our fellow veterans. But beyond the activities, CVMA® Chapter 25-3 is about finding a sense of belonging. It’s a place where we understand each other because we’ve been through similar experiences, and where we lift each other up as we continue our journeys.
Whether you’re a veteran interested in joining us, or someone who simply wants to learn more about our work and community involvement, we invite you to explore this website. You’ll find details on upcoming events, membership information, and ways you can support our efforts to give back to the veteran community.
Thank you for visiting, and we look forward to seeing you on the road or at one of our events soon.
Michael “BK” Baird-Kelly
Chapter Commander, CVMA® Chapter 25-3

All donations made will go towards helping veterans in need in the North Georgia area. The following are just a few of the things we have been able to accomplish with the help of your donations: build decks and wheelchair ramps, provide wheelchairs, clean up yards and trees, fix driveways, and deliver blankets to veterans in nursing homes.
