This paper presents a kind of pilgrimage which is different from the idea of the conventional pilgrimage, namely the pilgrimage of so-called pilgrimage bikers. The author views the pilgrimage of pilgrimage bikers as a making of a rhythmic ritual. In biker culture, issues of death and risk are present, why blessing the biker and the vehicle emerges as an important ritual.
