Welcome to all fans of the off-road. We have been blessed in California, Nevada and Arizona to have the pristine beauty of the Mojave Desert in our own backyard. Because we are adventurers by nature we often times find a need to explore the past, and, in doing so, create a future for us and our families. We tune up our rides, and gas up our tanks. Then we wait for the day that we mount up and ride like our forefathers did so many years before us…

The anticipation of riding the vast unknown, of tackling the treacherous terrain, of surviving the elements is more than enough for us to handle…Yet I often times wonder “What causes this reaction from us???”  Is it the open air? Is it the taste of the dirt as we ride through those desolate trails, or is it the sights and the sounds of Mother Nature at her almighty best??? Yet those of us here all share in this common human instinct…...The need to ride in the Mojave Desert…....

Recently a group of us decided to ride from Barstow to Laughlin down on the Old Mojave Road. This trail was a step back in time when the Mojave Indians set their path from the Colorado River to the Pacific Coast to trade their produce and goods. This ride entailed 150 miles of sand, rock, dirt and water. By no means is this a ride for the weak hearted, yet through it all, all 45 riders banded together and arrived as one. Maybe not all at the same time! But, We Arrived and Survived as One…  As we sat around that night reliving our life changing experiences, we decided to continue this tradition. In order for us to do that we need a vehicle to help get the information out and so begins the life of the MOJAVE DESERT RIDERS off road club.

We are a group of 70 family and friends that have joined to help educate and experience the vast natural beauty of our local deserts. Whether it be riding the dirt of the Mojave Desert, blasting the sand of Glamis and Dumont, or boating on the mighty Colorado River. These are all wonderments of our beautiful desert life. Each has something to share and each has something to teach.

If you share in this commonality with us then come on board and join the MOJAVE DESERT RIDERS. You’ll find the group to be very family orientated and most of all very adventurous. We plan regular trips to local desert camp grounds in the winter and boating on the Colorado in summer.
