Major roads, including Commonwealth Avenue, turned blue after hundreds of motorcycle riders converged in support of Angkasangga Partylist on Saturday, delivering a powerful final push just two days before the 12 May mid-term elections on Monday.

More than just a show of force, the motorcade was a message: the riding community is no longer waiting for change—they are taking it into their own hands, literally bringing Angkasangga Partylist's first nominee, George Royeca, to the gates of Congress in Quezon City.

Starting in Pasay City, the convoy made its way through the metro, drawing in bikers, delivery riders, tricycle drivers, and transport advocates along the way.

The motorcade passed through a key stop at Batasan Hills, where a symbolic “handover” in front of Congress took place. This moment marked a powerful gesture, as the riding community brought Royeca to the very institution they hope he will soon serve in.

In a show of nationwide solidarity, riders in Cebu and Batangas also held their motorcades, echoing the call for representation and unity across the archipelago.

“It was a simple gesture, but deeply meaningful,” Royeca said. “The riders brought me to Congress not just physically, but symbolically. This campaign has always been about them, and this moment reflected that.”

The event culminated at Pop Up in Katipunan, Quezon City, where a short program brought together supporters and volunteers. The atmosphere was energized but grounded in purpose. Addressing the crowd of riders who had followed him from Pasay to Quezon City, Royeca delivered a message that summed up the heart of the movement:

“Today, you didn’t just ride with me — you brought our entire community one step closer to real representation. For years, we’ve moved the nation without protection, without recognition. But now, we’re done being left behind. This isn’t the end of the ride — it’s just the beginning. And together, we’re taking our place in Congress.”

Angkasangga was built from the ground up by the riding community, evolving from the successful Angkas platform that has supported tens of thousands of riders through safety training, government benefits, and financial inclusion.

Now, the partylist seeks to institutionalize this model on a national level, expanding protections and opportunities to millions of Filipinos who rely on motorcycles for their livelihood, including food delivery riders, tricycle drivers, and informal transport workers.

Angkasangga is campaigning on a platform focused on three key legislative goals: the passage of a "Motorcycle Taxi Law," the creation of a "Magna Carta for TODA" to finally provide long-overdue benefits to tricycle drivers, and a measure to separate food and parcel delivery riders from the "Motorcycle Taxi for Hire Act," which currently groups them under the same outdated framework.

“We’ve proven that a well-run, rider-focused system works,” Royeca said. “Now it’s time to take that to Congress, and build policies that recognize the realities of our work, and the value we bring to the economy every day.”
