As has been said, pay a visit to your regional power club, follow the long established
procedure, and do it the right way, and it will be a very rewarding experience in the long
run.

Well said, Sprtster. Good advice that, along with a visit to the CoC & regional MC's. Let 'em know who you are and what you're about.

Besides the fact that RED & WHITE is spoken for, why don't you make a nice one piece patch (with different colors) and avoid troubles with other clubs.

Go with a one piece patch, dont tread into that area with a 3 patch. Motorcycle ministries is the best option. Unwanted attention is just that UNWANTED.

I'd ask the local MC or remove MC from the patch. Anything less could result in trouble. Here is controlled by the Banditos and unless you wanna get shot, you're careful about what you wear.

Did you explore joining an existing MM?
In my region of the US too many small groups attempt to form "clubs" simply because someone saw one once or watched a movie. Many have no idea what MC, RC, MM etc is really about.
I'm a PHer in a traditional 3 p patch fraternal order. See a lot of new startups fail for lack of understanding protocols. Kudos for asking questions. Best answers will be those you get locally.

There ya go. Always good to check with CoC, or dominant 1% in area.

Serious business. Ignore those that say otherwise.

Good advice, this. There's a lot of room in many RC's and MM's. There may be folks in your area who have already established some respect & credibility....it doesn't hurt to find out what's happening before you jump in.

PM me if you want some info to help find out who's in your area and what they're up to.

Interesting patch. Who's the dude in the middle?
