motorcycle clubs

Riders' social groups

Motorcycle clubs are organizations of motorcyclists who ride together and share a group identity, typically with a name, logo, and hierarchical structure.

Some are social or hobby-oriented, while others—often called outlaw motorcycle clubs or one-percenters—operate outside mainstream society and may engage in criminal activity.

Members often wear patches or "cuts" displaying their affiliation: He prospected with the club for two years before earning his patch.
