The most dangerous guys in these clubs are the prospects. They are the ones that have something to prove, but at the same time don't fully understand the ins and outs and when the need arises to to take it back a few notches..

Had an incident at one local bike night a couple years ago. A friend was wearing an "81" support shirt. Two prospects from the local big dominant club seen it. They came over started laying into him threatening to kick his ass, etc, etc... I stepped in to try to defuse it, told them " listen he's clueless, he has no idea, he'll leave, blah blah.." I called my buddy that I had mentioned before in a previous post, to come over before I got my ass kicked too. He called them off, and very nicely explained to my friend the problem with the 81 shirt. Told him just find another to put on and come back and have a few beers. Handled it perfectly. He understood my buddy had no clue about it and there was no reason to cause a big incident over it.
I hadn't seen him before he was accosted, otherwise I would instantly have told him to ditch the shirt. We still bust his balls over it.

Going back to dressing, looking back to the old days, ever think you'd see the day where outlaw club guys are wearing shorts, white sneakers?? Lol

Guys are actually staying clean now. No more dirty greasy cuts. Only the old grey beards. Especially the MCs out in Australia. Those guys colors are so over the top, the look like they are going for a fashion shoot.
