Q: Boozefighters Motorcycle Club,  are you guys against drinkin ?
A: Not hardly, most of us enjoy it.  The name came about in 1946 when we first got started, Walt Porter
suggested the name as the original members were "always fightin the booze" (as well as fightin and boozin)   
Our Founders consisted of WWII Vets and a few locals that were bored with life back here stateside . They
raised a little hell, rode and partied hard. Some members raced. Today, we try to carry on that tradition. We
are known as The Original Wild Ones.

Q: So you have to drink alcohol to be a Boozefighter ?
A: No. Some of our members do not drink at all, others drink casually, a few drink too much, if thats possible.

Q: Are the Boozefighters a  1 % M/C  or support club ?
A: NO.  1% was a term coined by the AMA which basically was a reference to bikers that were not like 99
%of most bikers.  Yes we are the "Original Wild Ones" but the 1% term does not apply to us today and we do
not wear a 1% patch. We don't claim territory, we don't claim bars, we don't get involved in other clubs
politics. We  RESPECT ALL CLUBS that have MUTUAL RESPECT for the BOOZEFIGHTERS  M/C.  Our sole
purpose is to carry on our rich history, ride, party and enjoy the brotherhood that exists in our
Motorcycle Club. If you want info on other clubs, feel free to contact them for more info. My intent
is to explain what BOOZEFIGHTERS are about. It is NOT my intention to speak negatively about
any other clubs or discuss their club business or politics.

Q: What is the difference between "bikers" I see at the local dealership and bikers in a M/C ?
A:  Most "bikers" you see today are NOT BIKERS AT ALL !  (instant bikers at best)  the guys you see tooling
around are usually just "RIDERS". They consist of yuppies, rubs, pretenders and everyday ordinary men that
enjoy riding 2 hours on the weekend (if there wife lets them) to get a beer at the local bar or coffee at
Starbuck's so they can show off their squeaky clean bike that they just spent 4 hours polishing on.  You will
find them paying 125$ for an oil change and boasting of it !  Hanging out in front of the dealership is their idea
of fun on a summers day.  But wait,  (because I love speaking the truth, no matter who it offends) theres
more !

Once a year these "wannabe bikers" MIGHT trailer to Sturgis, then unload their bike and "ride like they
rode theirs" believing that they "live to ride and ride to live".  Kickstart a shovel ?  Ride a  Knuckle or a
Triumph ?  NEVER !  If it aint got an electric starter, if its not a new Twin Cam, and its not sunny and 80, they
ain't ridin. These are the guys that do the "wave" when they pass going the opposite direction  (like they are
your friend or brother) but don't be deceived, they WON'T dare to stop and help anyone, damn sure not a
"REAL BIKER".

Now that you are good and pissed off, read what a "REAL BIKER" might be found doing....
A REAL BIKER rides his bike most of the time, rain or shine and everywhere he possibly can. Chances are he
works on it himself and if  he does not, he doesn't have to brag about how much he paid for his repairs to
"impress others". His leather is probably worn as he RIDES his bike. He stands out from the others at "bike
night", does not look like the posers that all look alike, dress alike and act alike. A REAL BIKER will stop to
assist if your on the side of the road, no matter how long your hair, or if you have a set of "colors" on your
back.  A REAL BIKER understands brotherhood and the true meaning of the BIKER LIFESTYLE, it's not just
the latest passing fad, IT'S IN HIS BLOOD. You can bet his ol' lady ain't going to dictate when he can ride,  
how long he will be gone or where he goes....  as HE is TRULY FREE.

Q: Why are you so down on yuppies, rubs, posers and Twin Cams?
A: Most of the yuppies, rubs and posers are the dudes that look at US  (Bikers & Motorcycle Club members)
as if WE "DON'T BELONG". When in fact, if it were not for TRUE BIKERS and M/C members,  HD would   
not have sold bikes in the 1960s and 70s and thus the yuppies, rubs and posers could not have became          
"INSTANT BIKERS",  as HD would have been out of business today !     NOTE:  In regards to a Twin Cam,
ride WTF ya want,  most of our members do ride twin cams.  It's just a personal opinion of mine, that nothing
looks or sounds like an old Knuckle, Pan or Shovel, and these bikes damn sure ain't "a dime a dozen".

Q: I do some of the above, could I possibly join your club ?
A: Maybe, there might still be time to redeem your soul. Take off your shorts and tennis shoes (shorts are
for boating, tennis shoes are for tennis, skateboarding or wearing so you can be a "poser" like Jesse James)
Now...  put on your jeans and boots, and come ride with us, get to know us and we will get to know you.
Continue reading and understand that WE DO NOT seek to increase our membership simply for numbers and
we are not a "mail order club". (more on that below) We are growing because we accept only QUALITY men.
We have even taken in a few yuppies and are making bikers of them !


Q: Can anyone join the Boozefighters M/C ?
A:  No. We do not seek to increase membership by handing out patches. Here is how it works: If you think our
club and lifestyle is for you, then contact us, hang around, attend our rides and parties, and get to know our
members. If you enjoy yourself, if we enjoy your company and you fit in, eventually you could ask to prospect.
If the members decide that you are an upstanding dude and have the desire and dedication, you could be
accepted and start prospecting. This is a probationary period in which you will learn respect and discover
what true brotherhood is. It takes time and work, but anyone that is serious about joining certainly has the
patience to endure his test of time and the dedication to accomplish the required tasks asked of him. When
and if the club members decide you are trustworthy and dedicated, then you might become a "patch holder".   
Note: This basic concept applies to many M/Cs.  Of course each M/C has it's own rules and time lines. In our
club, you must ride an American or British made bike. NO JAP SHIT !  (Those little fuckers are the ones that
BOMBED PEARL HARBOR !)

Q: What exactly is the Boozefighters  M/C ?  (Motorcycle Club)
A: Our MOTORCYCLE CLUB consists of men that understand true BROTHERHOOD and RESPECT. As  M/C
members, we have jobs, homes and families just like your average American working man. We not only ride
together, but we are true friends, "we love each other as  brothers" if you will. We ride together, travel,
party together, assist each other when the need arises, offer a place to stay for a brother passin through,
provide food, drink as well as entertainment. We will lend a hand  getting a brothers bike repaired or loan
him one of our bikes. Members in our M/C are "extended family". Boozefighters can be found assising and
hotsing fund raisers or poker runs to benefit kids, veterans, cancer or other worthy causes. A REAL BIKER
can be your best friend in a time of need.

Q: Will I have to break the law to become a member or give up my family ?
A: Sure you will...  And "THE COW JUMPED OVER THE MOON"  TOO.   Get real...  You will NEVER be asked
or expected to commit a crime, neglect your family or jeopardize your job.

Q: Will I be "jumped out" if I quit your motorcycle gang ?
A: Let me make this clear... Gangs generally consist of minorities with bizarre purpose or criminal intent. We,
like many M/C s, are a CLUB.  Legal and enjoying our God given rights, as protected by the Bill of
Rights and U.S. Constitution. We associate with those of like mind and desire. Our intent is to have a good
time. Should a member decide he no longer has time for the club, he is free to turn in his colors and quit at
any time.


Q: What if I don't desire to enjoy the friendship, brotherhood and trust that comes with becoming a member
of an M/C,  maybe I just want to wear a patch to look cool or brag!
A: Park your truck (the one with the Harley license plate and stickers that you drive when it is sprinkling out
or below 75 degrees)  have a "Wild Hogs"  patch made or buy a "Sons of Anarchy"  colors set and make an
ass of yourself !  Or  you could join  A.B.A.T.E.  H.O.G. or some other established Riding Club or motorcycle
rights club.  A MOTORCYCLE CLUB is MUCH MORE than just a patch you wear on your back.

Qoute of the decade: If you decide to act stupid, prepare to be tough.
