I don’t know but they came through this area back in the late 70’s and went down rural roads. My ex was fishing on a river bank near where we later lived and they went down a farm road to take a break and was drinking beer, they saw my ex and gave him a beer.

@cherokeepatti Good to hear some positives :)

@Nimbus I think as long as people are respectful they won’t be looking for a fight. I remember when the left-wingers were in California trying to cause chaos in small towns a few years ago that the motorcycle gangs stepped in and straightened them out real quick. That tickled me to read it.

@cherokeepatti Exactly, there's good and bad everywhere.

@Nimbus The Marlon Brando movie “The Wild One” was on a movie channel this past week. It was made in 1953 and was based on something that really happened in California when a motorcycle club came to a small town that was hosting motorcycle races one week. They came in and showed theirselves to the town people acting up. Nothing too bad but other motorcycle clubs came in too. I had to stop watching it. It seemed so cheesy compared the motorcycle clubs and gangs that were in the 70’s-now. I don’t know how it ended. That movie was considered a classic and helped Brando’s career a lot.

@cherokeepatti All this is reminding me of the scene in the movie "A Bronx Tale" where the motorcycle gang made a big mistake, and got what they deserved. It was a catharsis for me, since I'd been bullied by people like they were.
