Masks

 Words: Hook

I have different masks for different groups of people:


-In school, I'm a nerd who always sleeps in the library.

-At home, I'm the kid who always goes out to play with his friends and comes back home late at night, only to escape outside the window to play again.

-At work, I'm this asshole who loves to work easy and never lets anyone give him bullsh*t.


But the most essential identity I have is found within the club. No filters, no restrictions, no drama and most importantly no mask. With my brothers, I am who I truly am.


If you want to know who I really am, call me by my roadname, "Hook," cause I earned that shit for real.


I am Hook from North Capital Chapter, and a proud member of the Biggest Black and White Club in the Philippines. The BlackRiders MC, I am an Affiliate Outlaw, and my club has been standing since 1972. 


We are always riding, and never hiding. 


With much love, loyalty and respect. 


Salute 🖕🏻 to the all my brothers 🏴🏳️


Riders Forever, Forever Riders. 218 Represent!

How Strong Men Position Themselves in Today's Modern Society

  Words: Hook (During his prospecting days) Photo: Taken during his wedding With the world under the mercy of people without common sense (liberal feminists, pro abortion, etc ) the position of strong men becomes questionable. Men are left with no choice but to hide their natural instinct of protecting the weak, fighting for someone else and serving others (opening the door for women, pulling the chair for them, etc.), because to the eyes of the many (especially the women and those who identify themselves as) these are considered toxic masculinity. I have been protecting manhood/boyhood even way back in college, where I belong in a university that it is predominated by women. The way men are treated, and men's behavior are equated as 'bad behavior' (inside the university) only shows how a modern society treats strong men. With rampant videos as evidence about men being treated as jokes, commonly referred to as Takuzas (takot sa asawa), you are left with a question of where ...

The Resurgence

 Words: Knuckles Art: Hector designed by Knuckles with enhancements by Mac It was once said that in chaos, greatness will emerge. None of the first 13 members would have imagined what was to come for they were left with the dilemma on how to rebuild the club. The remaining members were then offered a patch over by a local legendary MC but after a few talks and with some disagreement on the terms, it did not push through.  There had also been talks of establishing a new name for the club. For weeks, hundreds of names and ideas were being tossed around until it just became frustrating. Then a moment of eureka came upon a member named Knuckles.  Not too long ago, serendipity struck. Knuckles met, a few months prior, an old timer biker named Papa J bearing and on his back was a patch with the name Black Riders on its top rocker. The old timer would tell stories of what it was like in the 60’s and 70’s and of how they came about. The idea was presented on the table of bringing...

The Deviation

  Words: Knuckles Art: Black Rider MC logo adapted from a riding club in Ecuador In the late 2010’s, most of the club’s member were dwindling as most have already joined the Adventurers, some with a LERAP associate club, while some had just went on to form other clubs or completely lost interest. Forward to 2016, an ex-Anghel ng Lansangan American prospect named Dennis Huff aka Dan Phanto started a local chapter of a riding club from Ecuador named Blackriders. They were all owners of a specific bike brand and model which was also the case of what was started in the Philippines. After he had recruited 3 local members namely; Ghost, Mac, and Lucky, he was given the approval by the local dominant 1%er club to start a 3-patched Motorcycle Club and as a club under the AOA umbrella. Under the guidance of a 1%er club, BRMC lived by the simple code of biking and brotherhood. The club would have weekly rides and meetings as slowly but surely the club embraced the true tradition and culture ...
