The event drew an enthusiastic crowd of about 380 people, marking a significant milestone for both the club and the local community.
Eddie Bohm, the club president, expressed his excitement: “We are one of 12 Crusader Charters in KwaZulu-Natal. Everybody was invited, bikers and non-bikers alike.”
The atmosphere was festive, brimming with camaraderie and excitement. Attendees included members from various other biker clubs, such as Hell Angels, Mega Force, Road Wizards and Hell Razors, who all joined in the celebrations. The event featured a meet-and-greet session, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose among the participants.
“Our aim is to help rebuild Harlequins Sports Club to its former glory,” Bohm stated. “The event was definitely a success. People not only supported the opening but also came out to support the women’s and men’s rugby.”
Bohm extended his gratitude to the Harlequins for allowing the Crusaders to establish their clubhouse there. “This is our opportunity to help restore Harlequins to the great place it was many years ago,” he added.
The strong turnout from various biker groups highlighted the sense of community and mutual support that characterises biker culture. “I thank all the bikers for attending as it’s part of the biker code to always help and support each other,” Bohm emphasised.
Looking forward, the Crusaders Biker Club hopes that residents of The Bluff will support the Harlequins Council’s vision to revitalise the sports club. This initiative aims to restore the club to its former glory, providing a vibrant and dynamic hub for sports and community activities.
