Google search ABATE if ILLINOIS. Then go to the nearest Chapter's meeting. You will not regret it.

Laugh... But one reason I’m asking this is...

Say at what you want but this is why I was asking. I’m sure in this forum has REAL MC members and those are the ones I’d like to hear from. I’m not considering the Outlaws.

No im not.

But it it sparked my interest and I wanted to hear real stories and real comments.

So so please keep me coming.

I just figured it might be nice to get out there and connect and travel with people that have same interest. But like I said. I’m getting the point and it’s being heard.


On a serious note, I don't belong to a club so can't help. Only thing I can offer is a question-- why? What is it that you want to get from belonging to a motorcycle club that you aren't getting now? You already indicate you have folks you ride with and you enjoy that. IMO a lot of the interest surrounding 'clubs' in general has been fueled by the popularity of Sons of Anarchy. It's like a great many folks out there just want to be part of a club because they are caught up in the glamour aspect of riding around in a club vest. In the past few years there have been a plethora of new riding clubs in my area alone. Things just sprung up out of the blue it seems. Nothing wrong with clubs. But I would just question what it is you really are looking for and hope to gain.

Perfect answer. Thank you.

I dont think it is a matter of who here is a member of a real club--I assume this means 1% club. If you are being serious and not trolling(not saying you are but there are tons of trolls who pop up here) , I am not sure what it is you are expecting to get in terms of info on a public forum when you say you would like to hear from them. I dont think anybody belonging to such clubs would discuss this kind of stuff n a public forum with a stranger and I also doubt they would IM a total stranger to discuss such things. Just being realistic here.

This has got to be the stupidest question I have seen on this forum....are you really thinking that anyone from a real club would come onto a public forum and discuss what happens at church? Give your head a shake....

i was a prospect for awhile and no i am not saying which club....but it is not what you think, or how tv or movies portrays it. I was lucky and was able to walk away, but once your in, your life is no longer your own....think about that.

stick with your riding buddies, you Will be much better off......

So please educate me and advise me where or what clubs would be a start to look at... With all do respect I’ll tell you what I’m not into is religion. Other than that please share your pros and cons. Thank you all in advance for you thoughts.

Sigh.....:icon_doh:

I haven't read the responses, so I'm sure you're talking about a riding club as opposed to an Outlaw Club.

Are you serious Poindexter? All clubs throw parties. Most have a bar you can drink at at their clubhouse. They raise money that way. If you're on the scene there, you will get an invite to a drink at their bar, or a party they throw.

If you need to be educated by goobers on the internet you've never met, then I suggest you stay away....
