    Hi Guys,

    I really hope it's not against rules of the forum.
    Some of you might have already heard about our group, some maybe not.

    United Bikers is all about the wind in your hair!

    United Bikers is a motorcycle community page where the experienced organiser of motorcycle events and his crew have come to bring you the most astonishing and exciting motorbike events in Ireland and worldwide. Because what is it for if not the enjoyment and the satisfaction of being a part of something bigger?

    We had our first small run a year ago for Poland (2) v (1) Ireland football match.

    This year on the Halloween 2016 we organised our biggest event so far. "United Bikers - Halloween Ride 2016". Where we met up at Liffey Valley Shopping Centre, we had RTE2 Radio to play music and make national announcement. (Thank you guys). From there we made our way to Dun Laoghaire Pier, I believe we are the first group that was granted permission to do so and to finally end up at Bray sea front for some coffee and ice cream.

    You can watch the whole video made by our team here:


    On our page we post motorcycle related content and motorcycle technological news. We are really looking forward to spend the next season with you! So join us at http://facebook.com/unitedbikerrs

    Why are yous blocking roads when cars have the right of way in between the big gaps between bikes passing?

    It's a precaution to ensure a safe pass for all the bikers. From the experience we have learned that cars jumping in between the bikes cause more danger for both sides, than us blocking the road.

    Marshals were assigned from the very start, everybody was informed who they are. We don't allow strangers and or inexperienced riders to do this.

    We had situations when passing by Garda bikes or cars they actually took over this task for us for set of one or two junctions. :)

    Fair play to the Honda 50 rider getting stuck in with all the big bikes.

    Went on the Halloween Ride Out. Great day and well organised. Great job done by the Marshalls who kept everybody together.

    Cannot understand why some of these bike groups organise meet ups and ride through city centre or other urban area at relatively low speeds. Would prefer to head further afield and get the hell out of dodge for the afternoon.
    To each their own I guess - good luck with it...

    You got a valid point, but then what would be the point of dressing up for Halloween if no one gets to see you? :p The reception from randomers on the streets and the car drivers was great! Phones everywhere, kids taking pictures with guy dressed up for predator and even elderly came up for a pair of our holographic stickers.

    Enjoy both types of ride outs. Brought the nephew on the back of the bike on the Halloween ride out as I knew it would be a slow one
    and both enjoyed the day. Also nice to meet other bikers and have a look at the bikes.
