--having been around thousands of them at the Sturgis Rally, I agree completely-

-have been in close proximity of Hells Angels, Bandidos, Vagos, and Outlaws with no trouble whatsoever--by minding my own business--

I would trust the Hells Angel more than the Bloods or Crips. Street Gangs will kill ya just to increase their street cred. Biker Gangs have a little more honor than that.

[AppyPappy]

Gangs come and go depending on the leadership. The problem is not the gang itself but the mental health of individual members. If one of the members decides you are an invading space alien, he will attack and the gang will join in. That’s why you stay away from them. There is no rhyme or reason sometimes. You just look like a cop.

I am in a bike club, the VCLG. (Vespa Club Los Gatos)

When we pull into a bar with our 50 year old ‘grocery getters’ the Harley guys love it.

Very few of those guys are hard cases, but they(and we)look out for our own.

I like to think of our group as ‘hecks angels’.

....”have been in close proximity of Hells Angels, Bandidos, Vagos, and Outlaws with no trouble whatsoever—by minding my own business”....

In other words abiding by their doctrine....staying out of their way.
