As Brad said too, we are all on the same page!
Ex Bandito - those hombres are not to be messed with. Hells Angels too. We used to have HA in Maryland and Pagans were here when I was a kid. Regarding the HA - the only time I ever interacted with them in close contact was at my friends boxing promotion (pro promoter in MD). They always bought a full ringside table and they came out in full and completely in their gear. Always created an intimidating effect which is I am sure what they were going for. I handled the pro cash payouts and always had security with me as I carried a lot of cash. One particular event, the security firm was short handed so my escort was the local President of the HA. Honestly, he was all business and professional that night, no drinking, etc. He stuck to me like glue and every one avoided us!!!!!!! Even one boxer who I was trying to pay his purse! Of course when he figured out I was trying to pay him, my bodyguard I guess was less threatening. Anyhow, it was an interesting evening.
When I was in Austin one time on my way into a government bldg for a meeting, while on the sidewalk, I heard that roar and in a no parking zone no less, the Bandito backed in. He rose all 6ft 6 of him off the bike, proceeded to fold his colors and put in the sidebag, then walked into the bldg to a parole office! My coworker express surprise that he didn't secure his bike (she was 27 at the time), I told her, I don't think he is going to have an trouble, no sane person would touch his bike nor his cut.
