Major roads like Commonwealth Avenue turned blue on Saturday as hundreds of motorcycle riders rallied in support of the Angkasangga Partylist — a powerful final push just two days ahead of the 12 May midterm elections.
More than just a show of force, the motorcade sent a clear message: the riding community is no longer waiting for change — they’re driving it themselves, escorting 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 Metro Manila, drawing in bikers, delivery riders, tricycle drivers and transport advocates along the route.
The motorcade passed through a key stop at Batasan Hills, where a symbolic “handover” in front of Congress took place, marking a powerful moment where 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 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 electric, yet firmly rooted 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.”
