I never understood the need to loose your anonymity and join a group, wear patches, have a clubhouse, etc.. i just want to ride.

Who cares about all this macho BS and patches, I think it is just stupid myself.

Pack mentality, only strong in a group, cant walk alone anywhere or thinking they are especially tough bad asses because of some patch on their jacket, lol muhahaha its silly man.

We have a lot of patches around here, the young guys act like they are hard asses but the older guys are really cool, you can approach them, talk bikes, enjoy a laugh have a beer, its all good, its all about respect, if you respect others they will respect you.

Plus I think it is just asking for trouble anyway, you have rivals, cops, slighted people that will drive you right off the road because of what some other A hole did to his sister a few years ago, etc.. who needs all that ?
I would rather blend in and be left alone, and just enjoy my ride.

we all have an opinion it doesnt make anyone right or wrong, it is all opinions and what you like.

Same night I made patch three others got theirs stripped. Had to. We're a ama club and these dudes were doing things and attracting the wrong attention. Pretty simple, they had to go. They turned their patches in right then and there.

Do these guys have any affiliation to the Quiet Skulls MC, Somewhat Noisy Skulls MC, or the Loud Skulls MC?

Funny story, 2010 in Sturgis there was a sign out front of the HA shop that said Sonny Barger autographs. I thought that would be cool so my wife and I strolled in past and in between a few full patch members outside the door to get in. I had to laugh; these guys were all about 7ft 5. I’m not even sure they saw me walk past them. Growing up in the 70’s in Omaha I worked with and had a few beers with a few guys in the same organization, I just don’t remember them being that tall or I just got old and shrunk. Anyway, Sonny is what he is but he was a good host that day and we enjoyed our visit.

could get real interesting if all the people who talk tough on here...were to do it face to face. I'd just stand back and feel sorry for them. 1%'ers play for keeps. It ain't a joke with them.
