Get To Know Us.

The Parisi Chapter of the Widows Sons Masonic Bikers Association is made up of Freemasons who have a passion for motorcycles and Freemasonry and naturally having a good time.

We are based in the North & East Ridings of Yorkshire.

So what do we do? Well, like all Freemasons we raise money for charitable causes, in the Widows Sons we also ride motorcycles, have great social events and basically have lots of fun.

We are a chapter who likes to tour and some of our journeys include Belgium, Spain, Portugal, France and the Netherlands as well as many excursions all around the UK and Ireland. We ride out most weekends, usually meeting at a central point cafe for breakfast before heading to a location decided by one of the members, usually there's a good pub or cafe at the end point too!

Summer evenings (Wednesdays and some Fridays) are also a meeting time, a shorter ride out but this is more often a chance to get together for a coffee and cake and a good chat. Wives and partners are always extremely welcome and they too have developed some great friendships over the years.

So what does Parisi mean? Well the Parisi were a tribe that inhabited our part of Yorkshire for three hundred years before the Romans came to our shores. They were a successful tribe who farmed, hunted and thrived in this corner of England and we are proud to adopt their name.

If you are a Freemason and a biker why not get in touch, come and meet likeminded brethren, you will be made very welcome and introduced to the incredible brotherhood that is The Parisi Chapter.

If you are interested in becoming a Freemason why not drop us a line and we will be more than happy to have a chat with you about it.

Keep safe and keep shiny side up.

About The Widows Sons.

The Widows Sons Masonic Bikers Association (WSMBA) is a UK based motorcycle association whose membership is made up of Master Masons from the United Grand Lodge of England and the Grand Lodge or Ireland. To become a member of the Widows Sons, you have to be a Master Mason, in good standing, and must have and ride a motorcycle.

The Widows Sons are not motorcycle brand specific.

We do not intend to speak for, or represent any Masonic body. We simply want to share our passion for riding with all other Masons who ride, and have some fun while we do it.

We offer the hand of respect and friendship to all fellow motorcyclists. Our status in the motorcycling world is that we are NOT MC or 1%, we have no aspirations to become MC or have MC status. We are not affiliated to, or support any MCs anywhere. We do not involve ourselves in any politics whatsoever, other clubs business is theirs and theirs alone. We are just a social riding club, which happens to have set one of its membership requirements to include being a Master Mason in good standing.

Our name comes from certain aspects of our Fraternity, it is not intended to install fear or appear threatening in any way.

We are not territorial and do not condone illegal activities by our members. All we ask is that our members act in a way that will reflect well on our Association, our Fraternity and motorcycling in general.

We wear a Square & Compass front patch (as we are entitled to do as Masons) to denote our personal fraternal affiliation. This is not a part of our ‘colours’; it is simply a common custom among members of our Fraternity to wear this symbol.

If any prospective members or other clubs have any questions or would like more information about the Widows Sons we encourage them to contact us, we look forward to working with everyone in the motorcycling community to protect all our rights.
