CHAPTER ZERO
OUR STORY
"We didn't start a club. We formalized a brotherhood that already existed on the road."
2021
THE FIRST SPARK
In January 2021, seven riders in Dubai decided to make it official. What had been an informal riding group became The Chosen Ones MC — founded by Andrew Bailey, Oussama Charabeh, Hamid Dehzad, Roni Haddad, Ateef Hyder, Terry Kane, and Seif Moueilhi. These are The First 7.
There was no grand plan. Just bikes, trust, and a shared belief that the UAE's roads deserved to be ridden properly — together, safely, and with pride.

FORGING THE PATCH
The patch came next. Twin skulls on a spade — one with wings, one with a cape. CHOSEN ONES across the top rocker. UNITED ARAB EMIRATES across the bottom. MC tab to the right. Orange border, black panel, white detail.
Wearing the colors became mandatory on every official ride. Not a rule — a privilege. The patch means you earned your place on the road.
2022–2023
MILES THAT BUILT US
The club grew steadily through 2022 and 2023 — new riders from Egypt, the Netherlands, Syria, Palestine, Australia, and beyond. Every member brought their story. Every ride added to ours.
We crossed into Oman, ran desert expeditions to Liwa, switchback rides through Khor Fakkan, and sunrise runs from Al Qudra. The kilometres added up. So did the bonds.
NOW
TODAY & THE ROAD AHEAD
Today ChosenOnes MC rides every Wednesday and Saturday across the Emirates. We run charity rides, welcome new riders through a structured membership process, and represent the UAE on every road we touch. The patch is still earned, never given. And the road isn't finished with us yet.

WE DIDN'T CHOOSE THE ROAD.
THE ROAD CHOSE US.
