Five males have been arrested as police ramp up their investigation into an illegal motorbike riding event in Melbourne that occurred just days before Christmas.
On December 23, about 55 riders were first spotted riding erratically on the Western Ring Road near Sydney Road about 3.25pm before heading to the Tullamarine Freeway, CityLink and riding over the Bolte Bridge.
The group then travelled to a St Kilda yacht club on Pier Road where they continued to ride dangerously around Catani Gardens.

Police arrived shortly after, and a rider allegedly kicked the side mirror of the police vehicle before the group dispersed and took off back towards the city.
While traveling on CityLink some riders were allegedly dangerously swerving between cars, performing wheelies and filming each other.
Last Wednesday, police carried out a number of warrants across Melbourne's north and south-east.
