Introduction
Freewheelers MC were founded in Waterford City Ireland in 1979, one of the first homegrown Irish 1% clubs to exist in Ireland in the 1970s. From the outset destined for the long haul we still have 5 original members from 12 that started in ’79.
Founded by John Blue O’Shea and Claudio Clau Giani who in 1979 had the vision to put together a club that has been and still is at the forefront of the Irish MC 1% scene ever since.
The make up of Freewheelers MC grew out of the ashes of the Waterford bike scene of the ‘70s and various clubs of the time like the Falcon MCC, Black Sheep MCC and the need to be a tight unit considering the gang warfare that had taken place with factions like the ”Boot Boys“ and later the mod revival of the late 70s and the various skirmishes that took place in that era.
The Freewheelers MC took a “Don’t Fuck with Us” attitude which still holds strong today.
The Brotherhood that is Freewheelers MC is as strong now as it was at the beginning and is a true bond. It is what we have lived for, it is what we would die for, it is what has made us what we are, true 1%er’s and brothers which is something that can be lost if numbers become the game which is all too often the case!!
Our policy from day one was to keep Ireland free of international politics which to the most part 35 years later we have achieved. Our Alliance with the other 2 True Irish 1% clubs has been a major part of this policy and it is an Alliance which we intend to nurture into the future.
