The 21st of September was a day for the members of REMC to get dressed! An official ceremony conducted by the members of BoT of the club. May I add that this has never be done before in the history of Motorcycle clubs in Nigeria. The ceremony kicked off with an address by the Chairman "Conyluv" of the REMC club, he read the clubs mission and vision statements, discussed the core values of the club, and congratulated us all for being partners of this great vision.
We were given our membership pack, which had been delayed at the airport for weeks( praise the lord!). Anyways, we went on to "get dressed" we all wore our official club shirts (which I must say is "SICK": the shirt na 10/10mehn!), as we were called out one after the other. The bio data of each member was read and the lapel pins were placed on the left breast pocket by the chairman, sealed with a formal handshake and 'welcome' by the Chairman and Vice chairman. The lapel pins placed on each member was as per membership level, categorized uniquely by the colour of the pin. The membership pyramid of the club ranks from the prospect level through to the members white, members red, through to the member black which is the highest level of the club membership , and then the BoT.
So now we are DRESSED, it is safe to go out and play! So if you are driving or riding by, and you see good looking gentlemen and lady wearing a well tailored, exquisite looking red shirt with a huge bike logo at the back, take a second look and maybe a picture, because you have just spotted the Motorcycling club that is REMC: a club dedicated to changing the perception of who a biker is.
.........many can ride, but not all can ride easy.............
