Epic sodding mood!!!
the politics can be a pain in the ass but to be fair hanging around going to runs and joining in .......worth it to watch the closeness amongst the members and see the fun had prospecting ............hard work but good to learn about the club and the members getting patched up ...............AMAZING !! what you get a loyal group of friends closer to you than you can imagine friends who will answer your call of help at anytime trust me after my accident my brothers waited with my wife at a hospital 50mls away from home till 3am to take her home,collected all my belongings from my bike 300ml round trip and ran after us for 3 months till i could walk again all without complaint(had to endure months of slagging tho' haha) i think personally people judge the wrong way when they see a patch(ours is worn on the upper front left side over the heart as such) i've just came back from holiday at a family campsite(haven) were daily i wore my "cut" i do have long hair and covered in tattoos to be honest i got some strange looks and had folks moving out of my way BUT after a couple of days with my granddaughter me running after her and playing saying hello to and talking to other parents WHAT DO YOU KNOW ....................folks realised i'm a biker yea but i'm also a pleasent good mannered person i wear my cut with pride because i earned it i wish folks would realise the work that goes into wearing a patch then they would maybe show some respect to us for a change
