  3. Outlaw motorcycle gangs got their start in the 1940s and '50s as spinoffs of more mainstream motorcycle clubs. After World War II, motorcycling began to spread in popularity as a hobby. Veterans settling into lives in the suburbs working average jobs wanted to get a taste of the more adrenaline-charged life they'd lived overseas.

  7. "An outlaw motorcycle club (sometimes known as a motorcycle gang or biker gang) is a motorcycle subculture which has its roots in the immediate post-World War II era of American society. It is generally centered around the use of cruiser motorcycles, particularly Harley-Davidsons and choppers, and a set of ideals which celebrate freedom, nonconformity to mainstream culture and loyalty to the biker group.

    In the United States, such motorcycle clubs are considered "outlaw" as they are not sanctioned by the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) and do not adhere to the AMA's rules. Instead the clubs have their own set of bylaws from which the values of the outlaw biker culture arise."

  8. There has been a lot of media attention in Sydney recently devoted to outlaw motorcycle clubs, also referred to as outlaw motorcycle gangs or groups and frequently abbreviated to OMCGs. Commonly described in the media as “bikie gangs”, certain of their number have recently been associated with shootings and bombings in an alleged turf war. The attention will become greater when the trials begin of those involved in the airport brawl and murder last year.

  9. The new sport of motorcycle racing resulted in experimentation and innovation, with engines of increasing power and ever tougher, faster and more reliable machines. These benefits were passed on in the machines sold to the public for general use.

  11. When some people think of bikers they most often think of the stereotypical of dirty, leather clad men with shaggy beards covered in road dust riding around the country wreaking havoc and getting into barroom brawls. The truth is that most bikers are not rowdy trouble-makers and are in fact honest, law-abiding, hard working people.

  18. An outlaw motorcycle club (sometimes known as a motorcycle gang) is a type of motorcycle club that is part of a subculture with roots in the post-WW11 USA, centered on cruiser motorcycles, particularly Harley-Davidson and choppers, and a set of ideals celebrating freedom, nonconformity to mainstream culture, and loyalty to the biker group. In the United States, "outlaw" clubs are not sanctioned by the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) and do not adhere to the AMA's rules, but instead, generally, the club enforces a set of bylaws on its members that derive from the values of the outlaw biker culture.

  19. Motorcycle clubs were formed almost as soon as motorcycles began production in the early 20th century. These clubs were for the purpose of communal rides, exchange of information and parts, general camaraderie and the bringing together of people with like minded interests.
