Hells Angels Coming to Town

[Heidi750]

You might want to keep an ear out over the next few days as the Hells Angels from across Canada and part of the States are coming to Calgary. I guess it's for the 10 year anniversary of the "outlaws" in Calgary.
The police are already talking about massive check stops and surveillance for the run.
Good Luck ... with your scanning.
Let us know if you hear anything.

Heard the local police tailing a convoy of HA through Crowsnest Pass today.

These days HA try to keep to them selfs. They don't get stabby unless they have too..I hope police leave them alone, so we don't have to deal with it.

Keep to themselves? More like they just have multiple other groups do their more dirty work and just reap the benefits... believe me they are more active than ever and into more diverse activities than ever. With our booming Alberta economy, they are certainly one of the groups that is taking full advantage of it and full advantage of Albertans where they can.

There are a couple (at least) HA living a block and a half east of me. They were driving around the other day in full colours.

The full patch guys are not the ones you have to worry about at street level if you are not in those circles, it's the hang arounds and members who are not yet full patch that feel they have something to prove that are the biggest losers when it comes to street level crime and potential for violence. Full patch guys are more like upper middle management and are more like traffic control for all the little dirtbags.

You leave them alone, and they'll leave you alone.

We had to get permission from the local HA chapter when we were forming a Masonic motorcycle club. They were quite friendly and good guys during the sit-down.

99% of it is media hype, who love to grow enormous woodies over sexy stories about nasty bikers slaughtering and riding above the law.

They are what they are. Just leave them alone, and you'll be happy. It's as simple as that.

I can attest to that! We lived near a chapter in dover / Erin woods area, everyday I would avoid them on my bike. Then one day they were like come on over, I sat on the pourch and they said you should not worry about us, if anything this street is safer because we dont want any bull**** and flac from police.

HA could give two ****s less about anything in your life, unless your police or a rival gang, or someone who wants a cut or to cause issues. Then your fine!
that is all.

Just to let you know
RCMP- Vermilion is tailing a pack east of glieshian right now. 3pm.

Uh? If you leave them alone they will leave you alone? But you had to get permission from the Hells Angels to ride your bikes as a club in your town? What would have happened if you didn't? If you were worried about mixing in the same circles and had to get permission what does this say about your organization? Or theirs?

If you are starting a bike club that involves wearing colours, you need to get the clearance from the local HA. You don't need to, strictly speaking - but it's a very good idea to do so, in order to avoid complications down the road. It's a fact of life, and it's how things work in the real world, especially if one strays away from the safe confines of your house or computer.

I'm not really sure what you are trying to imply in your message, but our organization was a collection of motorcycle enthusiasts affiliated with local masonic groups such as masons lodges and the Shriners, raising money for burn victims serviced by the Shriners Childrens hospitals. That is what our organization was about. Myself, the freemasons, the Shriners or the Shriners children hospitals are not affiliated with the Hells Angels, so we cannot speak to what their organization is about.

"Mixing in the same circles" involves being on the road, on your bike, wearing colours. If you choose to do any of the three, you are 'mixing in the same circles' as organizaitions such as the BRM.

Like I said, if you start a motorcycle club that involves wearing colours or club patches while you ride, it's advisable to let your local HA chapter know who you are, what you are doing and what your colours look like. Like it or not, that's the way the big scary world works, especially if you choose to ride a motorcycle.

Again, getting back to your original post that you don't have to worry about the Hells Angels if you leave them alone, what exactly are the "complications" you speak of? I would imagine your organization, as a community service oriented club, is "leaving the Hells Angels alone" (unless those Masons really do have a dark side) so what do you exactly have to watch your back for? Are you saying the Hells Angels are dangerous? And personally, I do ride a bike, I have had my class six Alberta permit for over twenty years, and have belonged to several organizations that ride with club jackets/patches/secret handshakes/frequent bar nights, and have never ever heard of this stringent code of motorcycle club conduct before. I don't think we ever suffered any complications.

I don't think that the argument that you have nothing to fear from the Hells Angels is well supported by the fact that a community service based club has to strike up some sort of non-agression pact with an international organization primarily known for it's criminal dealings without fear of suffering through some form of perceived threat, be it real or not.

Going sorta off-topic I believe I've stumbled upon this "clubhouse", the news said its on 84th and while going to Race City on the weekend I noticed a fair amount of RCMP in the area as well as a house on the east side of the road with a long drive way with lots of cars on each side of the driveway and what looked like an admission both near the road. The property was set in quite a bit so you can't see very much. Anyway, based on what I saw thats what I think...I could be totally wrong. If thats the case please delete this post and save me the embarrassment.

Whatever you say, chief!!

You are right that is where the club house is. I work in the area and seen two RCMP cars parked north and south of that location over the weekend. The boys in blue didnt look to excited about sitting there. Im shure HA members where not pleased as well. Plus i seen and heard hawcs flying around thier quite a bit.

I'm not worried about getting robbed by the street thugs or Hells Angels but I'm worried about getting robbed by street punks that have nothing to do and come from poor or neglected family IE group home or mom and dad doing there thing than parenting.
