We are the Blue Knights of Maryland Chapter VIII, centered in Montgomery County, Maryland. While we meet in Montgomery County and our scheduled rides normally leave from the 7-11 in Laytonsville, we currently have active and retired members who represent the following law enforcement agencies: Montgomery County Police Department, Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, Maryland Park Police, United States Park Police, Metropolitan Police Department (DC), Prince George's County Police Department, United States Army Military Police, United States Department of State, United States Coast Guard, Department of Defense Criminal Investigations Division, Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission Police, Supreme Court Police, Department of Homeland Security/Federal Air Marshals, University of Maryland Police Department, and the FBI.

Our common goal is to encourage our members to ride their motorcycles together as much as possible in a safe and responsible manner, representing the "Good Guys" of motorcycling while meeting and getting to know the men and women of multiple law enforcement agencies. Our current activities include monthly rides, regular meetings, social events, acting as judging teams for police motorcycle competitions, riding as a group in the yearly Law Ride and Police Week activities in Washington, DC, and taking part in motorcycle related charity fund raising events.

We currently hold a scheduled ride at least once a month during the riding season. In warm weather, we meet at 9:00 am; during the early spring and late fall months we meet at 11:00 am. We now meet at the 7-11 in Laytonsville.
