Who we are

Built in Detroit. Held together by friendship, zipties, and bad ideas.

Motor City Riot (MCR) is a group of riders, wrenchers, and enthusiasts brought together by one simple thing: a love of vintage mopeds.

Officially founded in June 2011, with the club taking shape as early as 2010, MCR has grown into Detroit's oldest active vintage moped club and a proud branch of the Moped Army, the nationwide community that has been keeping 50cc culture alive since 1997.
