It’s official. The Coptic Orthodox Church, Diocese of Sydney and affiliated regions has given the blessing and approval to the Coptic orthodox Christian Motorcycle Association.

No doubt the first Coptic Orthodox Christian bike club in the world and quite possibly the first amongst all Orthodoxy.

All Coptic motorcyclists or any Coptics that are interested in motorcycles are welcome to join in.

Our basic goals are,

To offer support and the benefit of experience to new and younger riders to aid in overcoming the dangers of motorcycling. to organise, as safe as possible, rides to Church approved destinations and/or events.

To promote safe riding principles amongst Coptic motorcyclists. to organise ride/events of a nature respectful of our commitments to the Coptic Orthodox faith. to increas the public awareness of the Coptic Orthodox Church and our faith within the broader Australian community.

To offer a motorcycling fellowship to riders as an alternative to having them seek out companionship amongst motorcyclists who do not hold to our Christian values and beliefs.

To offer support and information to concerned family and friends to Coptic motorcyclists, particularly amongst our youth, concerning the dangers of motorcycling, appropriate protective clothing e.g. helmets etc, licensing, motorcycle safety maintenance, or any other area of concern or inquiry.
