a while ago got a southern cross flag top and bottom rockers the same as my forum signature. Then all the knee jerk and media reaction starts and brands all riders some sort of dangerous element to the community. So my patches sit in storage and maybe one day when the local law settle down and relax I might put them on but at the moment discretion is the better way.

I think the 1%ers would be more upset with top and bottom rockers
Its an area just not worth going i think.

Sadly I agree, personally don't see a problem, but how times are changing. The whole culture of bike riding is being portrayed in such a negative manner by mainstream media.

Then on the news this morning another shooting, I personally thing to many outside interests and cultures have become involved. What ever happened to the days if you had a problem you just punched it out and kept all the problems in house. There used to be a lot of respect for what happened in front of woman and children, there was a distinct line between club business and family business and the two never crossed paths.

So much respect and privacy has now gone, just so some knob heads can big not themselves. sounding like some real old bastard but I have to say it things were a lot different in my day. There was never nothing to prove or big note yourself about, just hung out with your mates doing your own thing, and having a bloody good time along the way.
 
my train of thought was to have a small 'name badge' for get togethers wether it be a sew on or pin or whatever.
I know there's not going to be hundreds of us so it should be easy to remember everyones name......says me who made a 24klm detour from work to town then promptly forgot why I was in town then drove 37klm to home and ran out of petrol driving up my driveway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's good that there's so many different opinions about the subject...that's what forums are all about.

I know what your saying but as u know their bottom rocker indicates territory so if u wear one your only asking for trouble I think . Just like the fellas walking around with the tv show sons of anarchy patches on . I think if they are in the wrong place at the wrong time they may get a please explain if u know what I mean . Not saying puting patches on is bad just saying patches that imitate a club environment and or territory will probably bring u very unwanted attention . After all they don't buy their colours they gotta earn them and I for one am not prepared to wear anything that they may perceive as disrespectful it just isn't worth going there .
