We have a close friend that is a Vietnam Veteran and an ordained minister who is also a biker and rides with other bikers. I had never met his biker friends until last year. Right after my brother passed away our biker friend and about 20 of his biker friends came to my home to make sure I was doing ok and offer to help me if I needed anything.
I was not only really close to my brother but I took care of him while he died from cancer, that is why our friend was so concerned about me. I sat on the patio and visited with them for hours, they all seemed like very decent people. Their visit made me feel so good, there is no way it could have been wrong.
Yes they all had the “biker look” but looks can be very deceiving.
Looks are always deceiving and I’m sorry about your brother.
I chimed in because for me, your average suburbanite, my only encounters with bikers have been on the receiving end of their road rage.
