Membership Details:
LA Clan membership requirements exceed the minimum
requirements established by BIR Worldwide. Once you submit an application for
membership, you may be invited to attend one or more meetings/rides/events.
After you have joined us for at least one meeting and ride, the club may invite
you to become a “Candidate” for membership for a period of at least 3 months. If
you demonstrate strong interest in membership by participating actively in our
rides and events, the club may invite you to become a “Prospect” for membership,
for a period of 6 additional months, during which you will be introduced to the
worldwide club membership. If you fail to demonstrate strong interest by
actively participating in rides and events, the club may remove you from the
membership process at any time. After the 5th month of your Prospect period, you
must seek out two sponsors to vouch for you for membership prior to the end of
the 6th month. Once you are vouched, the LA Clan will vote to either accept or
reject your membership.
