    since when did you become a spokesman for lubavitch or the Rebbe for that matter?
    Additionally, I dont think I see a “Mendelsohns Riders” or “Lubavitcher Rebbes Riders” or even “Menachem Mendel Riders”.
    All I see is “The Rebbe’s Riders” which could mean any Rebbe.
    Stop being so worried

    HeMales, Females can all ride along. The Rebbes riders doesnt discriminate and as long as you are some sort of “male”, you’re good to go!

    Concern Lubavitcher, there is nothing inherently wrong with being a motorcyclist. Its the philosophies and practice behind them that can be the problem. The goal of this group is to put it in a good context, under the direction of shluchim who want to bring yiddin closer to yiddishkeit.

    Think about existing classes in meditation and kaballah. Chabad houses offer it because they are meeting yiddin where they are at and directing these experiences in a proper way. The Rebbe would be proud to see disconnected yiddin connecting with local chabad houses where they can learn and ride in a chassidishe context.

    Feel free to email me. I would be happy to continue this conversation offline.

    To # 8 There is nothing wrong with using Rebbe’s Riders. The group is furthering & using another angle to do Hafatza just like any other club like a Hillel group in College

    Yoni,

    Thanks for your thoughtful response. You mention in your group’s goals that you are under the direction of a shliach or shluchim. Under which shliacg’s/shluchim directorship are you under?

    ‘The goal of this group is to put it in a good context, under the direction of shluchim who want to bring yiddin closer to yiddishkeit.’

    The goal is to give these tools to local Chabad houses and their riders to manage it themselves. More or less autonomous. They know best what they need and can mold it to their own standards. It’s a bottom up, grassroots model.

    We will be launching a few chapters shortly, but everything is in a pilot stage right now…Thank you!

    Your comment is all about divisions. That’s what I call grobkeit! Our leadership, while preaching unity, made sure that we are divided and intolerant of each other. The more leaders, the more divisions. It’s time to roll back this fallacy.
