MACVSOG
Welcome!

Some Think Bikers are mean
Some dress in leather and others in jeans
You don't like our patches or the clothes that we wear
You hate our bandannas and hate our long hair
You don't like our scooters and our loud noisy pipes
You think we're not loyal to the stars and stripes
You don't like our patches that are worn on our vests
You think we're so different from all the rest
But the truth is, Mister, we're kind of alike
You drive a car and I ride a bike
You have no tattoos painted on your arm
But we fought side by side over in Nam
So the next time your children are running around
Enjoying their freedom and the fun that thay've found
Remember us biker and all that we do
We feed our veterans, we're red, white and blue!
We bring toys for tots and toys for a smile
By riding our bikes for miles and miles
You see, us bikers have never forgot
Our homeless veterans, and our homeless tots
We our loyal to our clubs and true to our bro's
We will always wear black from our heads to our toes
Society once said long hair was for fags
But you'll never see a biker burning a flag
Now the tattoos and leather you don't understand
Stands for free independence that us bikers demand
Our long hair and patches and bikes with loud pipes
is a tribute to our freedom, the Stars and Stripes
So before you make up your mind on just what I might be
Take a look in the mirror and what do you see?
The man that you see staring right back
is not much different from that biker in black.

BIKERS CREED BIKERS CREED BIKERS CREED

I ride because it is fun.
I ride because I enjoy the freedom I feel from being exposed to the
elements, and the vulnerability to the danger that is intrinsic to riding.

I do not ride because it is fashionable to do so.

I ride my machine, not wear it. My machine is not a symbol of status. It
exists simply for me, and me alone

My machine is not a toy. It is an extension of my being, and I will treat
it accordingly, with the same respect as I have for myself.

I strive to understand the inner-workings of my machine, from the most
basic to the most complex.

I will learn everything I can about my machine, so that I am reliant upon
no one but myself for it's health and well-being.

I strive to constantly better my skill of control over my machine. I will
learn its limits, and use my skill to become one with my machine so that
we may keep each other alive. I am the master, it is the servant.
Working together in harmony, we will become an invincible team.

I do not fear death I will, however, do all possible to avoid death
prematurely. Fear is the enemy, not death. Fear on the highway leads to death, therefore I will not let fear be my master. I will master it.

My machines will outlive me. Therefore, they are my legacy I will care
for them for future bikers to cherish as I have cherished them, whoever
they may be.

I do not ride to gain attention, respect, or fear from those that do NOT
ride, nor do I wish to intimidate or annoy them. For those that do not
know me, all I wish from them is to ignore me. For those that desire to
know me, I will share with them the truth of myself, so that they might
understand me and not fear others like me.

I will never be the aggressor on the highway. However, should others mess with me, their aggression will be dealt with in as severe manner as I can cast upon them.

I will show respect to other bikers more experienced or knowledgeable than I am. I will learn from them all I can. However, if my respect is not
acknowledged or appreciated, it will end.

I will not show disrespect to other bikers less experienced or
knowledgeable than I am. I will teach them what I can. However, if they show me disrespect, they will be slapped.

It will be my task to mentor new riders, that so desire, into the
lifestyle of the biker, so that the breed shall continue. I shall
instruct them, as I have been instructed by those before me. I shall
preserve and honor traditions of bikers before me, and I will pass them on unaltered.

I will not judge other bikers on their choice of machine, their
appearance, or their profession. I will judge them only on their conduct
as bikers. I am proud of my accomplishments as a biker, though I will not flaunt them to others. If they ask, I will share them.

I will stand ready to help any other biker that truly needs my help. I
will never ask another biker to do for me what I can do for myself. I am
not a part-time biker. I am a biker when, and where ever I go. I am
proud to be a biker, and hide my chosen lifestyle from no one. I ride
because I love freedom, independence, and the movement of the ground beneath me. But most of all, I ride to better understand myself, my machine, the lands in which I ride, and to seek out and know other bikers like myself.
