From: Texas! Ya mean there's someplace else?
As far as "normal" lower rockers, here there are only 2 outfits that wear "Texas" on the bottom rocker - Bandidos & the Blue Knights. Other clubs that I've seen wearing a location rocker usually had a city name, though I've sometimes seen a chapter number, and even an "Established in 19xx" lower rocker.
I posted the link to the MC & RC education site in an earlier post in this thread. If the answer isn't spelled out there, the gist of it can easily be discerned.

Yup. I bet most of the guys here trash talking the Beemer hardly ride the Harleys they are so fan boi about. A bike is a bike, if its got 2 wheels and goes fast, Im down with it.
$25,000.00 and 10,000 miles don't make you a biker.

Jeeze guys, he is a commuter, it's not like he is rolling to the bar so he can pick up chicks and get in fights. I think you guys are making this out to be way bigger then it is.

Omaha definitely has issues...
Associated Press - October 13, 2008 10:25 AM ET
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - A group of former gang members called Universal Soldiers is preaching against violence on Omaha streets.
Members of the group believe they helped create the problem while they were gang members in Omaha years ago, and are now trying to reverse a growing trend of shootings.
Darnell King says help for the problem is not going to come from the outside. He says his group is in the best position to influence gangs, because Universal Soldiers members have been there and can relate to gang members.
Universal Soldiers are going to schools to talk with students, teachers and administrators, as well as walking the streets and mentoring kids. The group also plans to set up a 24-hour gang hot line.

Hard to believe if you've never been outside of New England/East Coast...
Omaha's population: 390K
Massachusetts biggest city: 173K (Worcester)
Boston combined with Metro area: 590K
I grew up in Boston, enlisted at the South Boston MEPS...traveled 16 countries and 46 other states...trust me, I've been there and Omaha has it's issues--just as bad as the worst times (70s/80s) in Roxbury, Dorchester years ago.
