Default No Colors Rallies

Just wondering how no club colors events work? Does a person need to take off all colors even while just out and about or just to go inside places? Do regular non MC patches have to be removed also?

Even if they aren't wearing colors, they have tattoos that say what club they belong to.

Depends on the place and folks running it. I do a Bike Night once or twice a summer if I'm real thirsty that says no colors and means it - even the riding and owners club people are asked to strip their vest if the club ID or patch is on it. Don't know if it makes any real difference except to the sponsors.

Do HOG members have to remove "their colors"?

The guys I know that wear colors, true club colors, don't take them off for anyone or anything.

They are members of the elite 32%'ers (32% of Harley owners who do not know how to change their own oil) Even if they take their vest off, they are wearing a Harley shirt, and if they take it off they probably have a temporary full back tat. I try to avoid and not make eye contact with those guys as they can be pretty intimidating so I stay away from booths where they sell t shirts from other rallys that they didn't attend, or the elephant ear booths.

Last year at Street Vibrations the hotels had a No colors rule for the OMC's.
I saw plenty of OMC in the casinos with their vests turned inside out.
