Yeah most 1% bikers hate the 81, I don't know why LOL
In France, The Hell's Angels and the Bandidos made a non agression pact that is still standing today.
It comes from the day the Bandidos set up their first chapter in Europe which was in Marseilles. The French Bandidos leadership met with the French HA leadership to divide territories and avoid clashes. There has never been a war between the two faction ever since then, even when The HA and Bandidos were going at it hard in Scandinavia and Germany.
Other than that pact, i would say it's also because of two factors :
- The French bandidos are strongly connected to the MC leadership in Texas because the Marseilles chapter is the Bandidos Mother Chapter in Europe and everything that is going on between the European chapters and Texas (administration stuff, prospect clubs...) goes through Marseilles. Same thing for the French HA which are strongly connected to the HA leadership in Quebec. So I'd say both MC in France are part of the bigger picture of their respective club and they are not that concerned about local feuds.
- The French bandidos and HA are also much less involved in criminal activities than their northern european counterparts so there's really no occasion for the two clubs to clash over business matters like they do in Germany or Scandinavia.
