Since motorcycling is an activity that involves risk, it is sometimes prudent to bless the machines and their riders before taking off on a group ride. This ritual is commonly known as Bike Blessings or a Blessing of the Bikes.

These informal religious ceremonies are conducted by ministers, priests, rabbis, and other religious authorities. Some Bike Blessings involve thousands of bikes while others may involve a smaller number. Motorcycle clubs across the country partake in these type of events as a way of reassuring themselves that their next trip will be a safe one.

Here are some ways that lapel pins take Bike Blessings to the next level:

For promotional purposes. If you want to generate interest in your event, consider ordering custom lapel pins to hand out prior to the occasion. Because these items are visible and portable, they can travel to different locations and work as miniature billboards advertising your event.
For fundraising purposes. Riders gather together to raise money for their selected charity and receive a blessing for a safe and happy riding season. Pins sold at the event are given to the non-profit or group chosen by the motorcycle club.
For sentimental purposes. Handing out or selling the pins at these events allows riders to always remember that day and particular ride. People that were present at the event have something memorable to take home with them. They can look back at their collections of lapel pins with pride because they know that they were there to witness the Blessing of the Bikes firsthand.

The Bike Blessing lapel pin that we created for our customer was very detailed and eye-catching. It featured a fully dressed biker holding part of the road in his hands. The words “5th Annual Bike Blessing, Twisted, MC 2011” helped make the pins easy-to-identify and relevant. The colors featured on the pin meshed well with one another. Gray, red, black, and yellow come together to form a powerful statement.
