Our Story
Our Story
On October 3, 1994, Tom Leber and some close friends gathered in his garage and founded the Mad Dog Motorcycle Club (MDMC). The result was an organization built on the principle of camaraderie and diversity. A brotherhood bounded by principles instead of borders.
Since then, the Mad Dogs have set fire to the streets of the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Japan, Hong Kong and China! - Creating the standard for Motorcycle Clubs in South East Asia.
MDMC is a Bike Club with a no-nonsense attitude to riding and brotherhood. It takes much more than a tattoo and a motorcycle to become a Dog. Members are acquired by invitation and it only accepts bikers who are dedicated to free-spirited riding and brotherhood.

-
Where did the name come from?The name is steeped in mystery and folklore...and if you don't know...god dam 😉
-
Why a tattoo?Our tattoo signifies our commitment to our Club. It's composed of three elements, the Wings, Fire and the Club's Dog Head - Freedom, Courage, Loyalty. Each tattoo and patch carries with it a unique number. Never duplicated, never re-issued.
-
What are colors?Colors, also known as our patch, refer to identifying club-issued insignia on our jacket or vest. The top rocker is the name of our club. Mad Dog in red letters with white background and black border. The Dog Head, in the regulation size, is the logo of MDMC. The bottom rocker, indicates the nation of origin - The Philippines 🇵🇭, Thailand 🇨🇷, Japan 🇯🇵, Singapore 🇸🇬, Hong Kong 🇭🇰, , and China 🇨🇳. Finally, the MC patch. We are a 3 patch MC for those that care. To dispel a myth, if we were a gang, don't you think we'd be smart enough to use a patch with a G instead of an MC on it 😬
-
Where is the club located?Our headquarters is in THE DOG HOUSE located in the Handlebar Bar & Grill, 31 Polaris Street, Makati, 1209 Metro Manila, Philippines Each chapter has its own hangout and ride days. We are all over the place so its best to get in touch with us before visiting.

-
Is this a Harley Davidson Club? What type of bike is required?Although most of our brothers ride Harley Davidsons, the club is open to cruisers 400cc and above. The rule was set to define which bikes can maintain the pace and riding style of the club. It's mostly about the biker, not the bike. 💯
-
Is your Club limited to certain nationalities?Nope, diversity is one of the key elements of the Club. We have members from at least 20 nationalities, 5 planets, two galaxies and a guy called Krusty 🤡
-
Does your Club engage in criminal activities?Not to our knowledge 🙄
-
Why do people have to go through the prospecting status? Is there a way to fast track the prospecting status?Riding with someone through long distances requires a lot of skill, trust, and respect. The prospect stage makes sure that you've got what it takes to be with the Club. This is why not everyone makes it as a full pledged member. And yes, there is a way to shorten it...quit before its over 😝
-
Is it expensive to join the Club?Not so, but you'll find out when you're there. right?
-
What is your advice so that I can get into the Club?Get yourself the biggest cruiser you can get your hands on, drink like a fish, smoke like a chimney, increase your tolerance level, rid yourself of shame, and pay us a visit...time will tell....peace bro! 😎
-
Do I have to get the tattoo? Is it big? Does it have to be on my shoulder?Yes, Yes, and Yes, unless that space is already occupied by other ink...in which case the underside of your arm works too......

Can I get a tattoo and colors like the Mad Dogs so that I can look cool riding my motorbike?You can try, you can run, but you can't hide 🙈🙉🙊

Is it true you have strict riding and membership rules?So true it hurts...But it can be summed up in 4 words: DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE
