Chrome & Leather, a ministry of Graceway Baptist Church in Springfield, Missouri, is a group of Christians who enjoy life to the fullest by sharing a passion for riding motorcycles. Our four most important values are: Come as you are – Everyone is welcome regardless of background, religious beliefs, dress, or brand of motorcycle. Please invite a neighbor or friend to come ride with us. Connect – Fellowship is a very important part of what we are about. We make new friends or simply spend time with old ones while sharing a love of motorcycling, good eats, and the open road. Care – We deeply care about the members of our group, our church, our community, and our world. We exist to minister to other riders who are down…physically, mentally, or spiritually. As a group and as individuals we participate in charity rides and volunteer our time for important causes. Change – We hope that you experience life change as you fellowship with us and grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ.

2011 Ride Schedule Has Been Announced – all rides normally leave from the church at 10:00 a.m. unless otherwise noted.
