They put their motorcycle boots on the ground!
Outlaw Dutch bikers have joined forces with Kurdish fighters battling ISIS fanatics in Iraq — and authorities in the Netherlands say that’s just fine with them.
Klaas Otto, head of the No Surrender motorcycle club, told Dutch broadcasters that three members from the cities of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Breda recently joined the fight outside Mosul in northern Iraq, Agence France-Presse said.
A photo on a Dutch-Kurdish Twitter account showed one of the men — a heavily tattooed Dutchman named Ron — clad in military garb, holding a Kalashnikov assault rifle and flashing the “victory” sign as he sits with a Kurdish comrade in a fortified bunker.
“Ron from The Netherlands has joined the Kurds to exterminate the rodents of [ISIS],” text with the photo reads.
No Surrender is one of the Netherlands’ biggest motorcycle clubs, with membership rivaling that of the Dutch Hells Angels’ chapter.
And, unlike Dutch citizens who might side with ISIS in the fight, the bikers would face no punishment from the Dutch government — because they are not committing a crime.
“Joining a foreign armed force was previously punishable. Now it’s no longer forbidden,” said Wim de Bruin, a spokesman for the Dutch public prosecutor. “You just can’t join a fight against the Netherlands.”

May God give them increase.
However, the largest MC and they muster 3?
God Bless those who help beat ISIS back.
Throw some pissed off white guys into the equation, and you’ve got a party.
If the Hell’s Angels and the Bandidos show up, it could get interesting.
Where’s Technoviking when we need him?
I see steely determination in that Kurd soldier’s eyes.
Nice sentiments by these Dutch bikers, but I hope any more that may join are in a little better shape than the guy pictured. The kurds don’t need to be administering first aid to heart attack victims as well as the wounded. I give this guy 300 yards before he falls over heaving.
Mount a mini-gun on the handlebars, sounds great!! Only problem is you can hear them coming from miles away. Kevlar dew rags?
This is beginning to remind me of the Spanish civil war.
I think the sand monkeys would lose...
The terrible risk involved here is that bikers are so easily identified as they wear their colors and meet, party and live at certain addresses.
If your colors get targeted by domestic terrorists, then you are in some serious trouble.
Our local Hell’s Angels bar is located in the same area as our Muslim population, if it became an issue, the slams would target the bar and the bikers and the rest of us who use the bar, coming and going.
Crusades part deux.... 1000 years later?
this is great, no lie...
I’d love to see this become a widespread movement
Great stogies.
My thought too.
The local Johnny Jihads versus some “1%” bikers. I’ll put my money on the bikers.
I doubt they would be engaging in bar fights.
