If you're a "riding club" with about a dozen guys from your church, why does your patch say "motorcycle club"? Just quit all the pussyfootin' around with the "we kinda' wanna' look like an MC, but we're not really one". Do y'all dress alike when ya' go to church?

Why does this patch remind me of Leather&Lace MC?

Find your local MC (it's easy to do) take them a set of patches and let them look them over if your worried, they will look and if they want something changed they will tell you. No you won't die for talking to them.

YA well, the 3 piece really does create a look that most M/C,s wil have a issue with. slide the bottom rocker up tight and make sure you have a vissable R/C some place. and talk to the dom club.

I'm not understanding the mentality here...you guys are saying every MC has trouble with every other MC out there and this guy can't wear his patch because someone will pull a gun on him?

If the OP's group of riders wearing their current design pulled up next to a group of Mongols there'd really be an issue? Wouldn't the Mongols just look over, shrug their shoulders and say "Never heard of em..." and ride on?

I get the idea of unwanted attention but I feel it's extreme to say wearing these patches are a death sentence.
