GENESIS

It all started in early 2012 when I moved to New York City. For years, I had dreamed of riding a motorcycle, but life had other plans. Traveling around the world for work left me with little time to get my license and truly enjoy two wheels—even though I had a taste of it as a kid, riding scooters through the streets of Paris.

When I landed in New York, everything changed. The city was buzzing with energy, and I wanted to explore every corner. For me, the easiest and most exciting way to discover the area was on a bike. That decision marked the beginning of a new chapter in my life—and the genesis of New York Classic Riders.

What started as a personal quest for freedom and discovery quickly grew into something bigger: a community of passionate riders who share the same love for classic motorcycles and the open road. Looking back, that first ride wasn’t just about transportation—it was about connection, adventure, and creating a lifestyle that continues to inspire me today.

In the meantime, I’ve developed a deep passion for electric motorcycles. This is a completely different experience—silent power, instant torque, and a vision of sustainability. It’s not about replacing the classics; it’s about embracing innovation and the future of riding. Both worlds have their own soul, and I enjoy each for what it brings: the timeless character of vintage machines and the cutting-edge thrill of electric performance.
