The 1% club with the right attitude!

Vikings M.C. Ireland are one of the oldest back patch clubs in Ireland, having come into existence in the country in 1975. Originally known as 'Vikings M.C. Nomads', the club's bottom rocker was changed to 'Ireland' in 1997. The Vikings colours are blue and white.

The Vikings are the pioneers of the 'custom bike show' scene in Ireland. The first ever custom bike show in the country was run by the Vikings M.C. Ireland, in August 1986. At that time, many people were building custom bikes and had nowhere to show them, so with this in mind the Irish custom bike scene was born, and has enjoyed growing popularity since.


The Irish Custom, Classic & Vintage Motorcycle Show is run by the Vikings M.C. Ireland and is held every August Bank Holiday weekend (first weekend in August) in Carlow.

The Vikings also run the Bars Memorial Bike Show in Cork on the June Bank Holiday Weekend.

The Vikings M.C. Ireland are proud to be members of the 'Alliance Ireland' group of combined Irish M.C. 1% clubs, who are united to keep the Irish bike scene free of international biker politics. In the words of our Ancestors " Ireland her own, from the earth to the sky".
