Sikh Motorcycle Club UK
Building Brotherhood, Promoting Sikhi & Raising Awareness of Turbaned Riders.
The Sikh Motorcycle Club UK is a positive and inclusive organisation that welcomes people of all backgrounds.
- Building Brotherhood: We believe that it is important to build brotherhood among Sikhs. We do this by organising events that bring Sikhs together, such as motorcycle rides, charity events, and social gatherings.
- Promoting Sikhi: We believe that Sikhism is a beautiful and enriching faith, and we want to share it with the world. We do this by educating the public about Sikhism and its values and by organising events that promote Sikhi culture and heritage.
- Raising awareness of Turbaned Riders: We believe that it is important to raise awareness of the challenges that Turbaned Riders face. We do this by speaking out about these challenges, educating the public about Sikhism and Turbaned Riders, and by organising events that showcase the diversity and talents of Turbaned Riders.
We are a proud member of the British Motorcyclists Federation, and we welcome like-minded motorcyclists from all walks of life who enjoy riding and exploring new roads and areas.
Sikhism – The Path of Discipleship
The word Sikh means “disciple” or “learner.” Sikhism is a monotheistic religion founded in Northern India in the fifteenth century by Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Sikhs believe in one God, the equality of all people, and the importance of living an honest and ethical life.
Three Basic Principles of Sikhism
- Naam Japna – Meditating on the name of God: Sikhs meditate on the name of God to connect with the divine and to develop their spiritual consciousness.
- Kirat Karo – Earning a living by honest means: Sikhs believe in earning a living through honest and hard work. They are taught to avoid any activities that are harmful to themselves or others.
- Vand Chakna – Sharing the fruits of one’s labour with others: Sikhs believe in sharing their wealth and resources with those in need. They are taught to be generous and compassionate.
Here are some of the club’s activities:
- Rides: We organise regular rides to different parts of the UK, providing a great way for members to explore new places and meet new people.
- Events: We also organise other events, such as charity events and social events, giving members a chance to get involved in the community and meet new people.
- Support: We provide support and advice to our members, including help with finding a new bike, getting insurance, and dealing with any problems that may arise.
- Awareness: We also work to raise awareness of issues that affect the Sikh community, such as discrimination and hate crimes.
If you are a Sikh motorcyclist in the UK or simply interested in learning more about our club, please feel free to reach out to us through our website or social media. We would be happy to connect with you.
Sikh Turbans
Sikhs wear turbans to cover their long, uncut hair, which they maintain as a sign of devotion and respect for God. The turban is not just a practical garment but also a powerful symbol of Sikh identity, spirituality, and equality.
Sikh Teachings
Sikhism upholds freedom, equality, and justice, teaching respect for all, regardless of race, religion, gender, or status. It emphasises selfless service, encouraging Sikhs to help those in need and work for the betterment of society.
Sikhism in the World
There are about 25 million Sikhs in the world, with the largest Sikh communities in India, the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Sikhism is a universal religion that welcomes people of all faiths and cultural backgrounds.

Remembrance Sunday 2026
Members of Sikh Motorcycle Club UK were honoured to attend the Annual Remembrance Day commemorations in Leicester, paying tribute to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.
The day included the Remembrance Parade, led by the Seaforth Highlanders Pipes and Drums, from De Montfort Hall to Victoria Park and the historic Arch of Remembrance. The service featured the Last Post, the two-minute silence at 11am and the laying of wreaths.
We were honoured to attend the special commemorative ceremony at the Sikh Statue, recognising the courage, contribution and sacrifices of Sikh soldiers and servicemen who served in the World Wars and conflicts throughout history.
The occasion brought together the Lord Mayor of Leicester, Councillor Kulwinder Singh Johal, local MP Shivani Raja, city councillors, veterans, Armed Forces representatives, cadets, distinguished guests and members of the wider community.
It was particularly heartwarming to see children from Falcons Primary School, alongside cadets and young people from uniformed organisations, participating in the commemorations. Their involvement ensures that the importance of remembrance, respect and sacrifice is passed on to future generations.
As Sikh Motorcycle Club UK, we are proud to stand alongside our community in honouring those who served, those who sacrificed their lives and those who continue to protect our freedoms.
We Will Remember Them.
🌺 Lest We Forget.

“Behind every turban, every smile, and every journey, there may be a silent battle that nobody sees. Remember, it’s okay not to be okay. Supporting one another means standing beside each other through life’s toughest moments. Speak up, listen without judgement, and remind each other that no one has to face their struggles alone.”

A truly historic day for Sikh Motorcycle Club UK 🏍️🙏
Sikh Motorcycle Club UK was honoured to work closely with Giani Ji’s family to plan and be part of this very special ride, bringing together family, friends, club members and the younger generation to celebrate his life and legacy.
Seeing the children and family involved made the day even more meaningful, creating memories and passing his story and values on to future generations.
A huge thank you to ITV for covering the ride and helping share this special moment with a wider audience.
A day of remembrance, family, community and history. Together, we made history. 🙏

Amazing photographs ❤️🙏.
Thank you. You have my utmost respect and love. There is an over abundance of hate in the United Kingdom currently. Much of it is through stirred up emotions, mainly erroneously but often for deliberate, manipulative reasons. Let me tell you a little story. A few years ago a chap found himself homeless. It wasn't because he was an alcoholic. It wasn't because he had an addiction to drugs. It wasn't because he had been to prison. It was because he went through a divorce. It was because he had a breakdown. He had a somewhat enviable job and lifestyle. But overnight that was pretty much torn away. Imagine someone from a comfortable life ending up with nothing...instantly. Walking the streets all day and evening, staring through people's windows in envy whilst they did "normal" things in the warmth and security, like eating dinner together, watching television together and so on. It wasn't just about a roof, a bed, a shelter. It was about interaction, communication. Then one summer day, imagine the joy of sitting in the park that had become home and being invited, welcomed to join a game of cricket in the middle of the green. Not only that but then invited back to one of their homes to eat. Although this happened a few years ago, I have tears in my eyes as I write this because that chap was me. And the cricketers in the park? They were from the Sikh community and welcomed me without question. Without predetermined and misconceived ideas. Without prejudice. I salute you.
respect to the Sikhs who fought so well and enabled success in both world wars.
Well done, were any Reform members there?
Huge respect🌺🌺🌺
Sikh are very loyal honourable men who are also incredibly brave They stand on incredibly good morals and even 100 years later from ww1 as a local to Andover we have some Sikh army here Incredibly kind and respectful people some of which I see helping tne homeless during Christmas in both Portsmouth and Southampton Much love our Sikh communities and RIP to the brave Sikh soldiers who furiously stood their own to protect many during ww1 ❤️
Sikhs are honourable Gentleman.
Some of our best pilots were Sikh they served with distinction in the Royal Air Force (RAF) and the Royal Indian Air Force (RIAF) during World War II.
TODAY, WE REMEMBER. WE WILL NEVER FORGET. 🌹🇬🇧 Today, we stand together in remembrance of the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice fighting for our country, defending our freedom and protecting the future of generations to come. They left behind families, friends, loved ones and futures of their own. They made sacrifices that we can never truly repay. Because of their courage, we have the freedom to live the lives we live today. We remember those who never came home. We honour those who served, those who fought and those who gave everything. Their names may be etched into memorials, but their courage, bravery and sacrifice must forever be etched into our hearts. And let us never forget remembrance is not just about looking back. It is about making sure future generations understand the price of freedom. We will continue to remember. We will continue to honour. We will continue to stand proud. And we will teach our children and grandchildren to do the same. This Sunday, across England, as we pause in silence, let us remember the fallen with the respect, gratitude and dignity they deserve. For those who gave their tomorrow so that we could have our today. WE REMEMBER YOU. WE HONOUR YOU. WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU. Lest we forget. ❤️✝️🙏🏻🇬🇧 For our country. For our freedom. For our children. Always.

My grandfather served with Sikhs in Burma, he told me they were the bravest men that walk the earth.
LEST WE FORGET A Remembrance Sunday Poem Today we pause, with heavy hearts Beneath the same November sky. To honour those who stood so brave Who crossed the seas, gave their lives. From distant lands, they sailed Not knowing if they'd see the day Or when they would hold their loved ones tight Or see their homes bathed once more in light. From India’s shores, so far from home Through foreign fields they marched alone. From Pakistan, Bangladesh and India too, They fought for freedoms shared by you and me. Christian, Muslims, Hindu, Sikh and Jew And those of no faith too. Different prayers, yet side by side With courage, dignity and pride. Millions served, and countless fell Through fires of war, through living hell. Some wounded, captured, lost at sea Their sacrifice lives in our history. Yet many brave stories fade from view Of Muslim soldiers who served too. Their names, their courage, their sacrifice Deserve to shine in history's light. For every soldier, every name Regardless of their faith or claim No colour, creed or land of birth Can measure what their lives were worth. And in a world where hate can grow Where prejudice still casts its shadow Let remembrance be the bridge we build With hearts of compassion, respect fulfilled. For honouring one does not erase another We are all brothers, we are all sisters. Their stories belong to all of us, A shared history, a shared trust. So let us teach the generations yet to be That sacrifice knows no identity. That courage has no colour, faith or race And every fallen soul deserves a place. Today we remember, not just a select few But every soldier, old and new. Every faith. Every background. Every name. Every sacrifice deserves the same. For those who fought, for those who fell For those whose stories we must tell. Their sacrifice must never fade Their memory must never be betrayed. Every faith. Every background. Every nation. One shared history. One act of remembrance. We remember them all. Lest We Forget.
I thank your country's contributions. My father in the war served in India in RAF SEAC and he had the greatest respect for you all. He didn't come home until after the Partition. (PS I own a modern Royal Enfield).😊
And we thank the Sikh community for their support

🏍️ RIDE TO THE WALL 2026 🇬🇧
What an incredible day of respect, remembrance, family and brotherhood. 🙏
Members of Sikh Motorcycle Club UK were proud to take part in Ride to the Wall 2026, and this year was even more special as many of us brought along our families and children.
It was a wonderful opportunity to spend the day together, teach our children about the history and sacrifices that must never be forgotten, and help the next generation understand the importance of remembrance.
Along the way, we met old friends, made new friends and shared the road with thousands of riders from across the UK and beyond. A day filled with reflection, respect, laughter, conversations and the incredible spirit of the motorcycle community.
Thank you to everyone who made RTTW possible, the organisers, volunteers, marshals, emergency services and fellow riders. Your dedication makes this day possible year after year.
📸 A few memories from our RTTW 2026 journey.
We remember. We honour. We teach the next generation. We will never forget.
