Harley-Davidson has been roaring through roads and transporting its freedom-loving clientele since 1903. Currently, the brand is reaching out to the Asian market, with three more dealerships slated to open within the region this year. The Harley-Davidson of Cebu is the second dealership to be established in the Philippines, following the one in Quezon City which opened two years ago.

This comes as good news to Harley-Davidson riders from the central and southern portions of the country. Credited for bringing the brand closer to the rest of the Philippines is RDAK Global Motors, Inc.

“The upcoming dealership in Cebu is a full-service dealership selling motorcycles, parts and accessories, as well as services,” says RDAK Global Motors’ CEO Regan King. “Additionally, the Harley-Davidson of Cebu will be actively promoting its brand with a wide array of clothing and other lifestyle products, as well as community-oriented events via its sponsorship of Cebu’s first official Harley Owner’s Group Chapter.”

The launch, targeted for current owners and enthusiasts, will feature a plethora of bike models, as well as other activities tailored for the market such as demo rides on Jumpstart, a specially-made bike stand that will allow people to test the bike while stationary.

Rock & Rebels: The Concert Series

On the same day as the launch, Harley-Davidson of Cebu has partnered with local events companies The Event Hive and Spectrum for Rock & Rebels: The Concert Series.

Generation by Drop Decay

Generation by Drop Decay

 

Drop Decay started out as a small high-school band that did covers of songs from popular bands such as Fall Out Boy, Panic! at the Disco, Plain White T’s, and many more. Their first big break came in August 2012, when the band was asked to open for Live for Tomorrow and Every Avenue, leading to their growing popularity. Not long after, their first major hit I Wanna Touch You made its way to the local radio stations, and was soon followed by the single Charades, which was featured in Myx Philippines.

This year, Drop Decay released a music video for their latest single Our Time is Now, which is part of their debut album Generation released in July.

“The album, lyrically, is trying to achieve an empowerment for our generation to go beyond the norm. It brings back the nostalgic sound of pop punk bands at their prime like Fall Out Boy, Blink 182, We the Kings, and many others,” shares vocalist Tony Alfonso. “We grew up around that kind of music and so we thought it would be great if we could share our own interpretation of that era today in an age where the music industry is predominated by solo pop artists. This record, to me, is dedicated to all those in our generation who are in the awkward phase of growing up, graduating college, and still staying young.”

Lead guitarist Vince Lucero adds, “Our parents would always talk about their generation, where the parties were filled with motown, disco, and swing dancing, then came the classic rock era. For me, this album is our way of telling those who came after us how amazing our music still is.”

Bassist Kenneth Dagatan and drummer Chad Nimor round up the rest of the band members.
