Bikers & Motorcycle Clubs let’s Bridge the Gap




Let’s stop this war of all against all by bridging the gap; each one teaches one.

I don’t think we understand that we gain civil rights in return for accepting the obligation to respect and defend the rights of others. When civilians & the police see you riding a motorcycle with a vest all they see is a biker that belong to a motorcycle gang. They don’t see the color of your skin or know your sex. There will always be a strain of individuals who will find a reason to discriminate with the intent to isolate. Let’s stop being part of the problem and become part of the solution by coming together, ironing out our differences, educate each other and be okay with agreeing to disagree with respect.


It is evident that the terms in which we are operating under are failing in some areas. When failings are found we must renegotiate to change the terms, using methods such as bridging the gap between in-law (99%) bikers & outlaw (1%) bikers and let’s not forget about women riders who ride motorcycles just as hard as our male counterparts.

  


I have a question. Do you violate these roadblocks that keep us at odds even when they are against your self-interest for the betterment of our culture at large? I say yes because the only way we can reach the next level successfully is to have all bikers and motorcycle clubs practice inclusion and open mindedness.

  

I’m very happy to be a part of the bigger picture even though I’m not welcomed to join a Facebook group that is for men only. I respect the intent of the page because it’s trying to get the men on-board before women are welcomed. I believe in natural justice. Natural justice is a pledge of reciprocal benefit, to prevent one man from harming or being harmed by another through education in our motorcycle sub-culture. Bikers or motorcycle clubs who are incapable of making binding agreements with one another not to inflict nor suffer harm are without either justice or injustice; and likewise for those who either could not or would not form binding agreements not to inflict nor suffer harm must be dealt with.

  

Natural law is the enemy of absolute monarchy. I understand that there are some damn well betters in the motorcycle community and those damn well betters must be consistently taught by those of us who have the knowledge and wisdom. Yes that means being open to be taught by another race or sex.

  

Hugo Grotius goes so far as to say in his “On the Law of War and Peace” that even if we were to concede what we cannot concede without the utmost wickedness, that there is no God, these laws would still hold.” The best thing about his statement is that it allows us to force history’s hand by making the necessary adjustment in the motorcycle club world. Since it suggest that power can ultimately go back to the individuals if the society that they have set up forfeits the purpose for which it was originally established, which is to preserve themselves and practice brotherhood and yes sisterhood too.

  

I believe we are under our own jurisdiction. People have rights as human beings but there is an explanation of those rights because of what is possible for everyone to accept morally; everyone has to accept that people as individuals are entitled to try to preserve themselves. We should, therefore, avoid doing harm to or interfere with one another under the guise of being the most dominant motorcycle club in the state. Any breach of these rights should be punished.

  

There are much better ways to communicate with one another to keep the lines of communication open. Fear and intimidation isn’t the answer. We all need to respect one another. OG’s must show respect to the New G’s and the New G’s must respect the OG’s. I seek to solve our problems holistically through prevention and education. Have you ever thought about what the impact of our decisions and behaviors are on our present and future community and world?

  

Nobody’s better than anybody else, especially when it comes to growing the motorcycle community at large. We must meet bikers where they are from newbie to OG. We all can learn a thing or two from one another. Let’s keep an open mind; that may leave room for a worthwhile thought to be dropped in it.

  


There has been talk that there are some OMC’s with police in them. Well from what I’ve been taught that’s like oil & vinegar; they don’t mix; especially when the PoPo was in a prime officer position; like President and National Sergeant At Arms. That does makes you go hmmm… Even though I know the police are one of the biggest gangs out there today along with Politician’s…there is no room for them in an Outlaw Motorcycle Club…LOL

What’s stopping you from bridging the gap? To be continued…


These are the words and opinion of Goldie not my club affiliation…just me black female rider extraordinaire.

Nigger Motorcycle Clubs…Are Bikers Colored?



  

I found this site NiggerMania on a fluke. As always I scour the web for info to share with my folk; not looking for this hilarious bullshit to be splashed in my face. When I read it I went…Wow! I tried to become BFF on the site and they denied me…Ugh! LMFAO Could it be they saw that I was a black female biker?

  


I am posting this trash because I think it makes for a great topic of discussion among black or interracial outlaw and traditional motorcycle clubs. While we are fighting amongst ourselves for territory that doesn’t exist or suckin the ass of the white outlaw bikers and white outlaw motorcycle clubs who hate our guts; below you can read what they say about us. How does this make you feel? Really, is being the most dominant club in a state that fuckin important? I’d side more on lovin those who love us and fuck those who don’t!

  

This is my consensus on this shit; there is too much Tell-A-Vision happening in our motorcycle world. Don’t get me wrong I love SOA (Sons Of Anarchy) and I watch it every week but for the drama and the Hollywood hyped spin of our Outlaw Motorcycle World. This is the shit that fakes folk out to think they are bikers for life. No, No, No…this world isn’t for the faint at heart. It’s much more too being a “real” biker then you get to see weekly in an hour. It’s a way of life! Because of Tell-A-Vision the loyalty, honesty, commitment, love and truly being my brother’s keeper that was second nature among black bikers and black motorcycle clubs has been replaced with, “if you got what I need then maybe today I’ll look out for you.” The temporary, disposable life of a black biker…it makes me sick!

  


Let’s start talking about this and finding solutions to maybe getting back to the love we once knew and cherished among black motorcycle clubs in America.



  




  

Nigger Motorcycle Club
SO anyway i was attending our annual FAMILY (human) street carnival today in my home town when lo and behold there were a couple of she-boons wearin some ragged ass motorcycle club vests made of leather—-some were flying the “dragons” patch, while a couple of other she-boons had the patch ripped off the jacket—-what the fuck? The back of the vests stated they were from Coontroit—but the vests looked ragged as shit…dont get me wrong i know how bikers look, but c’mon! they looked like fuckin total shit! Even the Nigger Bucks that were flyin the colors looked ghetto! These she boons and Bucks were fat as fuck, the vests barely fit! Some of the she boons had their hair “bleached” blonde, however their hair looked orange, and then they had patches that said “kiss my ass” and so forth, (like the rest of us could give a shit). Fuckin black animals, they totally brought down the atmosphere that was supposed to be. I wish all of you could see it. It was indeed, DISGUSTING. Seriously, what the fuck has the United States of America come to? I am seriously perplexed by this fucked up sight, as well as angry. I had my family asking me what that patch meant. All i could say was “dont worry about it, they are a drain on our society”. It was the best i could come up with.

  

1. Nigger motorcycle club? motorcycle club? If it were not true it would be really funny to see. They would be stealing each others bikes !

  

2. Were they riding Homey-DaNiggersons? Niggers on motorcycles are a disaster waiting to happen.

  

3. Come on! Now they even think that they can pretend to be motorcyclists? That’s mighty sorrowful. Don’t worry, the niggers don’t fare so well around the Laconia campfires. I guarantee there has never been any monkeyshines at any event I have gone to.

  

4. Certain groups of people keep an eye on the niggers hoping they give a reason to bring out the ball pien hammers.

  

5. There is a certain well known very large MC club (I will not post their name, It’s not my place to name them) that has thousands of members.

  

6. I have never seen a nigger in that club, but yet the naacp has not to my knowledge hassled them about not being diverse. The club owns businesses, has employees, and no niggers. Why isn’t al shitskin and jesse jacoon giving them any trouble?

  

7. Don’t be Ignorant, Get Educated ~ The more you learn about niggers, the more you will hate them The only time niggers should be allowed on motorcycles is when they’re performing circus acts and their handler is standing close by.

  

8. Its acouple of well known 1% black clubs like the outcast, sin city disciples, wheels of soul, hell lovers, ching a lings. N all them clubs is crazy ass fuck

  

9. Seeing as how motorcycle riding is extremely dangerous, resulting in an astronomical number of serious accidents and fatalities, niggers should be strongly encouraged to drive these death machines, assuming that they must be allowed to operate motor vehicles at all. Avoid the groid. Heil Hitler!

  

10. Because they’re afraid, hehe. I ride in a club myself, and every time (rarely), we see a nigger club they hastily pick up and move on. It’s funny too because Harley riders generally wave at one another when passing; the nigs wave at us but we don’t wave back, hehe. I watched this hilarious scene on America’s Funniest Videos and it showed this nigger on a ‘pimped’ out Harley (probably stolen), taking off and wiping out into a parked car. I almost died. waaaaa!

  

11. niggers and bikes are two words that should never be mentioned in the same sentence. It disgusts me to even think about it. I think I saw that video, it was a dressed out roadking and the nigger fucking wrecked it. Worthless, completely worthless species.

  

12. Most niggers drive Japanese bikes not Harleys

  

13. niggers arent into bikes they just try to steal other peoples cultures, lifestyle and hobbies. Another reason they ride bikes and specificly harleys is for the same reason they do everything else, FOR ATTENTION they want to make them loud and paint them some nasty nigger color. lol and they think they are egyptian haha !

Loud Pipes Saves Lives…Damn it Arnold pass a bill to fix the budget!

The fate of California motorcycle enthusiasts lies in the hands of one of the most famous riders with a controversial bill heading to the desk of Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

On Monday California’s state Senate voted 21-16 to pass SB435, a which bill makes it a crime to operate a motorcycle manufactured after Jan. 1, 2013 that fails to meet federal noise-emission control standards.

If the bill is signed into law by Governor Schwarzenegger, riders caught riding model year 2013 or newer motorcycles without this stamp would be issued “fix it” tickets by law enforcement officers.

How will a police official know it meets the standard? By a sticker of course.

“The noise caused by illegally modified motorcycle exhaust systems is a major quality of life issue across the state,” said the bill’s sponsor, Sen. Fran Pavley in a statement yesterday, “Basic common sense and decency dictates that when a motorcycle drives by and sets off every car alarm on the street, that is too loud. Additionally, many of the modifications which are aimed at making a bike louder—for example removing the catalytic converter—also make the bike exponentially more polluting. This has direct, measurable and negative impacts on public health.”

When the legislation started its journey through the California legislative system in July the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) objected to the legislation for several reasons, one of which was the required sticker.

“Many EPA labels are very difficult to locate on motorcycles,” said AMA Western States Representative Nick Haris. “This proposed law could lead to a flurry of tickets for motorcyclists who have legal exhaust systems on their machines with EPA labels that can’t be easily seen. It’s unreasonable to expect a law enforcement officer to easily locate an EPA label, and it’s simply unfair to expect a motorcycle owner to partially dismantle an exhaust system alongside the road to prove the label exists.”

Others opposed to the bill noted that many aftermarket exhaust systems meet emission standards but aren’t labeled, meaning law-abiding riders could be unfairly ticketed.

The AMA had encouraged California riders to contact their representatives to vote against the measure.

Sen Fran PavelyThis isn’t the first time the esteemed Senator from Oxnard-Los Angeles has had motorcycles in her crosshairs. It only last year when Pavley (pictured right) tried to introduce the same bill requiring the EPA stickers. Originally including smog tests for motorcycles built after 2010, the bill was watered down to the sticker requirement but still couldn’t make it through the legislature.

“In the absence of smog check, or other emissions or noise testing mechanisms for motorcycles in California, it is necessary to establish an enforcement mechanism that does not allow motorcycles to skirt current law,” explained Pavley in her statement.

And apparently the AMA couldn’t agree more with the Senator’s sentiment which is why the organization developed model legislation in September 2009 to help authorities come to terms with sound complaints surrounding motorcycles. The solution offered cities and states seeking a simple, consistent and economical way to deal with sound complaints related to on-highway motorcycles within the larger context of excessive sound from all sources. The group feels the model legislation offers an better, objective method than the one just passed.

“Requiring that a motorcycle display a readily visible EPA label isn’t the correct way to address concerns about excessive motorcycle sound,” the AMA’s Haris noted in a statement earlier this year, “The only objective way to determine whether a motorcycle complies with sound laws is for properly trained personnel to conduct sound level tests using calibrated meters and an agreed-upon testing procedure.”
