Funny @BlueFinch , I was just going to advise the OP to call the local Police Dept. and ask them what she's asking us.

ITA! Call the local police dept and ask them.

Absolutely!  I do remember! I was only stating a "fact" not condoning or "agreeing" with the choice or outcome.

We've ridden with two different motorcycle clubs, but were not members.  Poker runs and benefits (beef and beers), lots of fun and camaraderie with relatives, friends and total strangers alike.

Both were being infiltrated with bike club members that we didn't want to be affiliated with.  So we discontinued.  No harm no foul.  We chose who we wanted to ride with.

Geez! Make friends with them! I live in a very small rural town and know everyone and am friends with everyone.

@Puzzle Piece   They're definitely not my cup of tea. We've had streams of them ride through town and I don't feel comfortable when they're in town.

Thanks to all for your inputs.  I will steer clear of that street and those folks.  

The lifestyle seems so depressing.  Dirty clothing, ungroomed looks, etc.  I have never thought that they have much of a goal or future.  The women who are their 'babes' aren't too much different.  i don't find riding around and making noise on a motorcycle the way tht they do much of a contribution to humankind.

Wow.  That's pretty judgmental.   To both the men and women of this lifestyle. 

But to be expected here.

For all we know, each individual may be contributing a great deal.  What a very, very narrow analysis of your neighbor based upon superficialites and perceived notions.  Sad.  Very sad.

We moved to a small city for my husbandad's retirement.  It's a rather dull place to me.  However, this place has a large chapter of Hells Angels here.  They have rule over a certain street where their 'clubhouse' is located.  I'm not into that sort of lifestyle and have no interest in seeking out aqauintances with the members, etc.  What are your thoughts on that bunch.

I'm trying to figure out why this is an issue.  You don't live near their clubhoue and as far as I can tell from your post, they haven't attempted to recruit you.

On the Vice channel they are currently running a series on Hells Angels. Just as I expected, drugs, murder, prostitution, guns. Just stay clear of that area.

Boy are you naive. 

I suggest doing some research as to what each of the colored patches they wear on their vests/jackets mean, and what the man had to do to earn it.  They are not Boy Scouts.

The men rule and their women have to obey. 

Not my idea of a bunch of sweethearts.
