Default Question about colors.

I'm new to the San Antonio area, I've been ridin Harley's for 10 years but never in an area that had a major presence of an MC. My new neighbor who also rides warned me about the Bandito's. What should I be concerned about? And even more what should I be concerned about for my wife who also rides her own HD and is quite beautiful if I do say so myself. Any info would be apprieciated.

You didn't state whether you wore colors or not. If you do, you're probably going to have an encounter or two. If you don't, you won't have any problems. Commonsense dictates that you don't go to the places they hang out, party,ordrink. If you don't go looking for trouble, they won't bother you.

There are more than a few here in Albuquerque. In my experience, they are just riders like anyone else. I talk to anyone, and the site of a patch isn't going to change that. Of course,I am 6'1" and 350lbs.

Regardless of where you live, as long as your not flying any colors or a loud mouth, you have zero problems. Go on with life as usual. Forget what your neighbor said... looks like he watches too many old "biker" movies...
