Every year, the bikies go to Phillip Island race track to watch the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix.
It has become a custom for them to have a Police escort as a goodwill gesture (so that they don't trash the Town before they leave,) as well as to stop the potential for road racing and accidents and is part of the weekend's activities.
Victoria, where Phillip Island is located are also in dire financial straights and as such need every cent they can get hence they have this insanity that basically says it's alright to run over somebody just so long as you don't go a needles width over the speed limit.
This is what happened at this years event; I think it's called "Poetic Justice."
