Bikerwares Bikers Blog

I recently read a review of the Sons of Anarchy on Mike Odom’s Blog.  I’ve got to admit that from an entertainment standpoint it’s a very good and exciting show.  It has all the elements you would want from a show that geared towards boosting ratings.  Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll and Motorcycles.

But I’ve got a problem with the glorifying of the outlaw biker lifestyle.  Having lived that lifestyle for awhile myself it’s really an image that I’m trying to put down.  I really want people to see us more as free indepedant people who have an agenda that allows for complete individualism.  Most of the real bikers I know today are hard riding and have bigger hearts.  A few weeks ago I posted the “I was Just a Biker” video on my Blog.  This is really the image I prefer to see us putting out there.

This is my humble opinion.  Let’s hear yours.

Every once in awhile you just run into something that stricks you in some way.  This is this case with this video.  It’s a video done by a group called Rumble Strips.  Hope you enjoy it   Let me know what you think.

This was sent to all COC members in Denver Area

BE AWARE OF THIS

Sent to me by Gringo Mark:

Our brother Korey got pulled over last night on 84th and Pecos. Needless to say he had to spend a couple of hours in the pokey due to an outstanding traffic warrant.

This is what the Adams County sheriff’s deputy told him:

For the next two weeks during the DNC in Denver:

1) Any patch holder cruising through the Denver Metro area will get pulled over and they will run a check on your license. No reason, or cause needed other than we are considered to be part of extremist organization. This is part of a Homeland security measure, no probable cause is needed or required.

2) The Sheriff’s Deputy also stated that we pass on to all out brothers to stay clear of Denver during the DNC. Again, they will absolutely pull any and all patch holders over and run them through an on the spot background check.

The deputy offered this as a fair warning and advised us to stay low for the next two weeks

The internet is an amazing thing. For a couple of years there’s been a written poem going around about being a biker and the perception that the general public has about us.  Recently I found a version of this poem done on You Tube.  Check it out.  Show it to everyone you can.

Every once and awhile a friend will send me an email that contains a link or an attachment that I just can’t pass up. I am very picky about what I pass on to others, especially when it has to do with Bikerwares. I’ve found both in myself and in other bikers that we can have an unusual and sometime very selective sense of humor so I am very careful about what I send.

One thing though that I’ve found that we all have is strong sense of patriotism and huge desire for freedom. These are definitely two things that really define us as bikers. This video that was passed on to my from YouTube reall lays that out. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think
