One of many charity rides from Serbia...

December 2008, charity ride of bjbikers. All bikers were dresed as "fother frost", serbian equivalent of santa claus, but related with new year eve, not christmas.

Not as good as original because of language differences, but i tried to translate last seconds of this video for you.

There are places in this world that we found accidentally,
places that make you joy, like warm beams of first spring sun.
places which are oasis in the deserts of the grey reality,
places where we come to, by honestly listening the whisper of our hearts.

Bikers listened that whispers and found happiness
which is real only when you share it, and honest like a children smile.

We've got that smile, and it is biggest reward anyone can get.

It is a shame that we still have a block on youtube here :eek2:

I'm afraid that this is gonna last for some more weeks.
Look up Nick in PRC's signature, there is one solution :icon10:

thanks

Blackbite,

That looks like a great event and plenty worthwhile too. How did your club get involved with that? Did you start it yourselves or were you inspired by some others?

I once saw a video of some riders in Japan dressed up in Santa Clause costumes but I don't think they were delivering presents. A program like that in China would be a GREAT idea as it would get lots of publicity and there are certainly plenty of kids in China that could use a new experience. I should have thought about that while I was there.... sigh.

Anyway, hats off to you guys for the good work and good deeds! Who took the film?

The ZMC has done a Christmas orphanage run or two bringing presents to the local orphanage. It's a real shame to see it, but the staff are nice. Our video is on youtube too :eek2:.

Everything started few years ago as motorcycle forum. Eventually it grown into big online community, and shown potencial for many important stuff.

One of the main tasks are popularisation of motorcycles, braking some (mainly stupid american movies based) stereotypes and making more plesent and safer environment for motorcyclists.

Since lately bjbikers become a legaly registered organisation, so in the future we hope that we will make greater inflluence on public, and some benefits for members(discounts for protective gear, restaurants etc.). Also we hope better media suport.

There were several actions so far like this one from this video, simultaniously in different cities. Latest one was easter, called "draw a smile", few days ago.
Other than that blood donations are regularly, and currently there are some planning about "one bike - one tree" planting action.

Who took the film?
