FreeThought Motorcyclists of Portland, Oregon and PNW Riding for Reason, seems like a reaction to the Christian motorcycle group that dominates Portland. "Although, this event is sponsored by The Trinity Road Riders, a Christian Motorcycle Club consisting mostly of Harley-Davidson Owners, they say that EVERYONE on any bike is invited so, we should assume that this includes Adventists on adventure bikes, Hindus on Hondas, Humanists on Husqvarnas, science-worshippers on Superbikes, Mormons on mopeds, Druids on enduros, Muslims on Monsters, agnostics on Aermacchis, non-believers on Ninjas, Baptists on Bonnevilles, Buddhists on Boulevards, Trekkies on Vulcans, secularists on scooters, Catholics on crotch-rockets, atheists on Ariels, Multi-ethnics on Multi-Stradas, Jewish American Persons on Japanese bikes, WASPs on Vespas, Rastafarians on Rebels, Pastafarians on Piaggios, Pagans on Panigales, Quakers on quads, Unitarians on Urals, Wiccans on Gold Wings, V-Stars of David, Sikhs on Suzukis, and Taoists on Triumphs."
