I thought I read that the Cossacks were part of the Banditos. Let me check.

That's why we're not a true biker gang. We don't have a clubhouse.

Now if we only rode out of San Antonio, we could use the basement at the Alamo as our clubhouse.

Nope, the Cossacks are a rival club. They just started wearing the Texas rocker on their jackets which pissed off the Banditos.

There are 3 national biker clubs at war, the scimitars, bandidos, and cossacks. Police intel has declared that the war has also spread t o Killeen, Texas. The bandidos have declared war on any clubs flying colors in the central Texas area. The CMA Christian Motorcycle Association has advis ed all riders, affiliated or independent to not ride for the next 3 weeks.
Let's keep our techs and friends safe till this is all over
Even sport bikes?
There are some sportbike MC's, we are not a true MC, we don't wear rockers for fly colors so we shouldn't expect any issues.

If we wore cut offs, had colors and had rockers claiming territory we would have issues. We are only Fort Worth Motorcycle Riders because, well that's kinda where the majority live, we ride all over the place.

My understanding is groups like Banditos claim a territory that they fought for or something, so when they wear a Texas rocker they claim Texas as their territory, anyone else wearing a Texas rocker is going to be seen as a rival. If one for their MC's stand up rockers saying "fort worth" we aren't going to give two shits because we don't have territories, and we don't have rockers claiming fort worth, we just ride. In turn they shouldn't care about us because Fort Worth is not our "territory" and we make no claims as such.

Why would we fly a flag for the Long Beach GT owner's club? I don't get it.

It has come up multiple times. When FWMR started, the Bandidos showed up and had a very frank conversation with Terry.

Regardless of what you think about 1% bikers, they're not messing around. I saw a lot of pictures from down in Waco, some of those guys who looked like they were playing badass biker got a serious reality check.

It's not something that will affect us with our little shoulder patches and sport bikes, but if I were Throttle Mob I wouldn't be wearing colors right now.

I wouldn't get too worked up. 9 people died, people die all of the time. The Texas population is 27,000,000. So one three millionth. I think that someone is more likely to get hit by a pickup truck checking Tapatalk and reading this thread than to get caught up in a biker war. :D

Yeah, from where I sit, it's all pretty comical (and I hope it stays that way). I'm sure there were some there who thought they were bad-ass bikers that went "oh-shit, I didn't sign-up for this".

By the way, if any bad-ass bikers are reading this, my name is Leonard, I ride a Jazz moped, and I live in Bridgeport...Connecticut.
