Who founded the club?
Thomas Leber, an American National living in the Philippines founded the club in his garage after a few rides and a whole lotta beers and cigars on 10/3/94.
Where is the club house located?
The Dog House 1130 Pasong Tamo Rd, Corner Davilla Makati, Metro Manila PHILIPPINES Tel. +63(2) 895-9091
Where did the name come from?
The name is steeped in mystery and folklore...and if you don't know...god dam.
Is this a Harley Davidson Club? What type of bike is required?
Although most of our brothers have 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. But like we said, it's the biker, not the bike.
Does your club engage in criminal activities?
Not to our knowledge ;)
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 and two galaxies.
Is it expensive to join the club?
Not so, but you'll find out when you're there. right?
Is it true you have strict riding rules?
So true it hurts...
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 and trust. 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.
Do you ride fast?
In reference to light or sound?
They say you ride in formation, how come we saw you weaving in and out of traffic on the highway?
We were in formation while weaving in and out of traffic on the highway.
Is it dangerous?
Let me get back to you on that..
Do I have to get the tatoo? 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.
Do you ride far?
Give me a f****** break!
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! :)
Where are your other charters?
We have active charters in The Philippines, Thailand, Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong. As well as "Members in Good Standing" in the USA, UK, Mexico,Thailand, Korea, Australia and a bunch of other places.
What is the reference on the web site to numbers?
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 our jacket or vest and identifying club-issued insignia. The top "rocker" is the name of our club. Mad Dog in red letters with white background and black border. The Mad Dog head - regulation size, of course, and the bottom rocker, indicating our nation of origin - Philippines, Thailand, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and etc. Finally, the M.C. patch. We are a 3 patch MC for those that care. To dispell a myth, if we were a gang, dont you think we'd be smart enough to use a patch with a G instead of an MC on it?
What's the "International" bottom rocker that I've seen?
Brothers who are in good standing with the club but are too far in distance from an existing charter may at their option replace their lower rocker with the "International" rocker.
Can anyone go to the Doghouse?
Come by, let's have a drink! |
