Default crest on jacket

I had my club crest professionally sewn on the back of my only bike jacket. Now I get flak from others saying it is only for club functions. I don't want to remove it but am I violating some known rule? What do you do?

Not sure of what type of 'club' you are talking about (I assume it's some kind of RC), but various organizations have different rules when it comes to wearing their back patch in public.

But I'm surprised that club specific rules about 'wearing' and 'not wearing' were not explained to you before you were authorized to wear the patch.

Might save you a lot of grief to talk with one of your local officers and find out what is and isn't allowed.

If they don't happen to have any 'set rules' in their ByLaws, heck with them, just wear the patch whenever you want..
