By the name of the club "Southern Cross Cruiser Club" and the Harley Dresser in the photo they may well be the kind of club more interested in boys in leather than bikes.

I knew i was not down with the 1% scene, But they say it was a meeting with over 50 bikers, now that in my head strikes the image of a load of fat bearded harley riding bikers riding two abreast, surely if they are dealing in arms or drugs or people it would be incognito, ie a couple of them in a car as you say,

Im boring myself typing about this so ile just leave it,

I just assumed 'biker gangs' rode bikes around... meh

All depends what you mean by a 'biker gang' - to many, especially in the UK, that does mean just that.

However, in Australasia the 1% scene is a little more 'heavy' I believe. And can operate a little more openly than they could get away with in the UK, though you still get some serious security on 'club-houses etc around here, just that they aren't nearly as blatant about it
I believe there have been cases of rocket attacks sent from one club house to a rival's - pretty damn heavy stuff in supposedly 'civilised' countries.

Can't remember the exact details, but remember a case of a national rugby squad deciding to leave a hotel they were supposed to be having a party in because a 'bike gang' was also there at the same time.

[TheDonUK]

I would define a 'biker gang' as a gang who ride bikes as their primary group transport, and that any illegal dealings are on the side...

I mean if MS-13 or the Crips rode around on bikes i doubt they would be called a 'biker gang'

If the movies are to be believed the Yakuza and Triads love usings bikes for pillion drive-by's, but i wouldent call them a 'biker gang', just a gang that uses bikes.

Surely though if there is 50 of them at this bar, theres gotta be what at least 10 bikes parked up outside? or do they charter coaches or something?

As should be clear i know very little about 1% clubs, here or in Aus, but please feel free to enlighten me further G, dident know that aussie gangs were more overt...

[hmmmnz]

yeah biker gangs in nz and oz are a lot... ummm more angry?? than you get over here. over here a bike gang is just a bunch of ordinary guys who just happen to have bikes that meet up.
in nz they are a major criminal element, seen "once were warriors"??
its just like that. i remember when i was a kid doing my paper run past the mongrel mobs hq a group of the rival gang came down the street with bats and knives and shit. (well, no shit, except in my pants)
ready for a good ole fashioned gang fight.
i wouldnt be messing with any of them, and definity wouldnt be attempting a robbery around them... thats their job
