1% clubs that are based in Europe obviously differ from those found in the States , so I thought it would be interesting to start up a thread about this topic .


So first of all how common is it for one percenters in Europe to have a military background ? It's commonly accepted that many outlaw bikers in the US are ex military , so I'm curious to know if this applies to Europe as well . Furthermore are 1% clubs in Europe involved in criminal activities that their US counterparts don't have their hands in ? Such as ( for example ) tobacco trafficking ?

Also how tolerant are European 1% clubs when compared to their US counterparts ? Does the alleged no black/African members rule hold as much sway as it allegedly does in the States ? Are there any ( say ) French clubs that have a no Germans allowed rule ? Do some European 1% clubs allow women and homosexuals to join ?

Soldiers are involved in all the major clubs and there are seperate clubs for veterans.
Some big clubs are multicultural so they accept people of all colors.
Gays are not openly allowed, but I'm sure there are a few.
Women are not allowed in the brotherhoods.

Wasn't Mylene de la Haye about to start an all female chapter of No Surrender, but it got cancelled by Otto because she wanted complete press transparency??

What was Otto thinking in the first place?? Him and women lol..

Another thing that seems interesting to me is that biker club related OC in Europe seems to occur almost exclusively in Western Europe , more specifically in Germanic countries . I know that the Road Runners in Poland have been caught up in OC activity , but they seem to be a rare exception as far as Eastern Europe is concerned .


Why is this so ?

The Hells Angels have a serious group in Russia some are former Night Wolves.
