You don’t need to be a Freemason to ride with us.
BEDA Chapter of the Widows Sons Masonic Bikers Association is centred in Bedfordshire and welcomes bikers from the surrounding counties. We support the Provincial Grand Lodge of Bedfordshire.
Widows Sons is an international association that represents Freemasonry in a positive light, raises money for charitable causes and builds Masonic awareness.
BEDA Chapter takes its name from an otherwise unknown Anglo-Saxon chief, BEDA, who settled with his followers where the River Great Ouse was fordable some thirteen centuries ago.
