AFRICA UBUNTU RUN 2022
The Africa Bikers Brotherhood Forum is excited to announce the upcoming 6th Annual Ubuntu Breakfast Run, a celebration of the three pillars of Brotherhood: Loyalty, Honour, and Respect. This annual event has been held on the last Sunday of January for the past five years and continues to grow in popularity.
The Ubuntu Run brings together bikers of all backgrounds, cultures, and countries in the spirit of unity and love for the motorcycle. It has been successful in uniting a diverse group of riding clubs, motorcycle clubs, social clubs, and unaffiliated bikers. However, there are still some issues that the African Bikers Brotherhood Forum is addressing through the inclusion of presidents and council chairmen in discussions.
The run has also gained the support of the motorcycle manufacturing, importing, and retailing sector, as well as various government departments and other stakeholders. It is important to note that bikers are not gangsters, but rather family men and women who contribute to the economies of the countries where they reside. Biking is a culture, not a cult, and one that the African continent should embrace and understand.
The Ubuntu Run has attracted participants from countries such as Botswana, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, and Ghana. As the number of entrants into the motorcycle riding space continues to grow, it is important for African governments to create awareness and address the concerns of the organized biking fraternity at the national level.
