Left behind, while you ole man is out for days, partying, doing God knows what with God knows who. And when he comes home, you're suppose to just accept it. He joined after we got together, so I didn't choose to enter a relationship with an already established MC member. It's no way to live in my opinion. When I have talked to long standing ole ladies and asked how their lives have been with their husbands, etc in MC clubs, I get the same answer: Very difficult. Some have told me to find a better life, others say I would never want this life for my daughters. If you get in and don't care for it, don't waste your life hanging around. Get the hell out. If you don't mind being second or third place instead of number one, stick around. If you don't mind broads all over your man, him not coming home, wondering if he will even come home in one piece, stick around. If you want a fulfilling life without all the extra drama, rules, and politics, move on!!!Sick and Tire in WIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556713885072555963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934741358915685354.post-26704450350497820172017-06-11T23:09:45.325-07:002017-06-11T23:09:45.325-07:00If you want to start a club in your state you MUST...If you want to start a club in your state you MUST get approval by the associations of clubs in your area.

In a club you don't have that option, you lack the freedom of being spontaneous on a ride. I don't like to ride in groups anymore. I was thinking of putting lone rider on side of gas tank, but then I found out there's an MC called the lone riders. Any ideas? I'm a serious biker ride an average of 4 times a week on any day.<br />Roadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11773412889884799613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934741358915685354.post-77366081794049456512017-01-04T23:16:02.531-08:002017-01-04T23:16:02.531-08:00I'm a patched vice president and I have been f...I'm a patched vice president and I have been for five years, of a three peice patch.

At the next "group" meeting with the boys, say I have a suggestion! I would like to change the name of our club (as an example) to the The WLTR's... We Like To Ride. And, follow it up with, does anyone else have a suggestion for a new name? If you are dealing with an organizational image "thing", also known as an ego associative/idiopathic dependence (receiving empowerment through another vessel..money,muscles, women..your patch) you may not be that popular all of a sudden. If somebody says how about we call ourselves the WWD's Weekend Wife Deserters..you should be close to a nominal group of intellectually emotionally stable men, enjoying motorcycling camaraderie. Caution: I would only try this functional test of mental stability well before any type of consumption's begin.

It is people like you that give the good ones a bad name. I support an RC, and they do nothing but charity work for mostly kids. They even do special rides if a family member is in need of money for hospital bills and such things. The brotherhood is real, and you people need to pull your heads from your asses to see there are great riders and club members out there. Anyone in the club I hang around would give the shirt off his back to make somebody else happy.

If You Need To Ask How You Can Join An MC Like The 81, Or Any MC For That Matter, Then Just Pack Your Bags And Go Home. You Don't Belong In Our World. You Don't Just Walk Up To The Door Of An 81 Clubhouse And Ask How You Can Join, Unless You Wanna Be Carried Out In A Body Bag. This Is Not A Job Interview Where You Just Fill Out A Paper Application And Hope To Get A Position. You Don't Go To Them - They Come To You! There Are 3 Phases To Become A Member Of An MC (Hang-Around, Prospect And Full-Patch). During Your Hang-Around Phase, You Get To Know Everyone, They Get To Know You And The Club Decides If You MAY Be Someone Of Interest To Them. If So, A Club Member May Approach You And Offer You To Prospect For The Club. This Is Your Proving Ground. Obviously The Club Members Felt You Had Something To Offer, And Now Is Your Time To Prove It. And You WILL Be Tested On ALL Aspects Of Loyalty, Honor And Respect To The Club And Their Mission. And If By Some Chance You See It All Through, Your Reward Will Be A Full-Patched Member Of The Club And A Loyal Family That Will ALWAYS Be With You Till Death. This Entire Process Often Takes Years Of Dedication To Achieve, And Is Only Reserved For An Elite Few Who Possess What It Takes. So If You're Just Some Poser Who Is Looking For The Patch To Be "Cool", Look In The Mirror And Take A Self-Confidence Seminar. MC's Are Hot a Hobby - They Are For Life. And Just For The Record, MC's Have A Hierarchy Of Importance - And That Is Work 1st, Family 2nd And Club 3rd. So If Someone You Know That Is An MC Member Develops Marital Difficulties, Loses A Job, Is A Bad Parent, Becomes Abusive, Drug Or Alcohol Problems Or "Wrecks A Home", Take Responsibility And Don't Blame The Club, Because That Club Member Didn't Follow The Order Of Importance. And If You Can't Even Grasp A Club Rule As Simple As "Family First", Don't Even Let Me See You Walking My Way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934741358915685354.post-20054561197081688852015-07-27T12:35:12.475-07:002015-07-27T12:35:12.475-07:00We are splitting up.
