Motorcycle Clubs sponsor numerous events each year.  An ideal way to promote charity rides, poker runs, and annual Blessing of the Bikes events, custom lapel pins also help identify members of different groups by providing them with a product that features their logo or unique artwork in a creative manner.

The most popular event, Blessing of the Bikes, occurs throughout the country as a way of paying tribute to the four bikes and eight riders who received a “blessing” from St. Ann Catholic Church in Baldwin, Michigan in 1972.  The tradition has spawned several decades and has grown in popularity. The oldest riders to date were a couple in their 80s.

Event organizers from every state plan and advertise the occasion with their own unique custom lapel pin designs.  In addition to marking a milestone event in a group’s history, custom lapel pins instill a sense of community and pride in riders and promote goodwill and tolerance amongst non-riders.

Custom lapel pins educate the public about upcoming events including those done for charity.  Poker runs and benefit rides are important to motorcycle clubs because the events help raise awareness as well as funds for different individuals and organizations.  An important contributor to the community, motorcycle clubs advertise and generate interest in their events through the use of custom lapel pins.

There are a number of other ways that motorcycle groups can use custom lapel pins.  Here are a few examples:

  • To pay tribute to a fallen rider.
  • To celebrate the group’s anniversary.
  • To identify new members.
  • To commemorate outstanding members.
  • To mark an important milestone in the club’s history.
  • To honor those Missing in Action (MIA) and Prisoners of War (POW).

Custom lapel pins can be created for virtually any event that a motorcycle club sees fit.  Their small size and unlimited potential make them the perfect piece of memorabilia for groups and organizations all over the world.
