I feel like this is under the same subject margins, so if I'm hijacking, I sure don't mean to, and apologize to the author.
Within the past month here on the southwest side of Houston I have seen HighRollers, BACA, Bandidos, and another one which I couldn't tell the name of since I don't read Spanish but they had Bandidos support patches as well.

Just last year at the Lone Star rally in Galveston I noticed quite a few Bandidos right ahead of me riding down the street. When I realized there were just as many right behind me I decided this might be an great time for a lane change.

I have never seen any members of these groups doing anything but minding thier own business. My wife and I pulled up to "West of the Brazos", a burger joint/bar south of Needville, TX a few weeks ago and two HighRollers walked over and greeted us and in a round about way asked what we were doing. They were friendly about it and without really thinking about it I told them we had been invited by a band member to come listen to his band which was playing at the bar. They just said to have a great time and went about thier business. Turns out one of the HighRollers was getting married there that day. First "biker" wedding I have seen.
