Sons of Anarchy!!

I'm not a huge tv watcher, but there are a handful of shows I'll watch. Initially, what got me started watching this show was the fact it was the only "motorcycle oriented" tv show on the air. After seeing the previews for it, I had my doubts it would last at all. Turns out, I ended up hooked on the show after the first few episodes. What's funny is I'm not even a real cruiser fan, but in the end, it wasn't the motorcycles that kept me watching the show, but the storyline itself. The second season just started earlier this week, and the first episode was pretty gnarly (especially if you've already seen the first season). I'm not able to watch the show on the air when it's live, so I have to watch it online, but I will say, it's a pretty damn good show. Anyone else a fan of this show?

Yeah, me too. I think it does something that few, if other, tv shows similarly related have really even done. It takes you deep inside the life of the "motorcycle gang" life. To most, on the outside, it's really just a big dirty mystery, but what the show does is expose the Hollywood side of what could be interpreted as "that type of life". IMO, it de-glamorizes (is that a word?) it, and shows the real tribulations of living that lifestyle. I know for me, it would definitely make me think twice. I was never around that type of influence 10+ years ago, but if I had been, would've been prime material if I'd been exposed. No offense to anyone, but I'm glad things worked out that way. If you can make that lifestyle work for you... great. I know FOR ME, my conscience would be struggling to deal with the ethics of the whole thing myself. Am I way off base here?

Nope, I am a young guy but a old style biker, my father was a biker till he got rear ended by a speeding driver and was in hospital for over a year, after that he gave it up, Never been in a patch club, the biker lifestyle can often be hard, fast and short, our very machines alone often is what kills us.

I am a big fan of sons of anarchy myself, id prospect for a patch club but to tell the truth I haven't seen one who I click with, and I didn't choose my lifestyle just to be a drone.

Besides I don't know how long I could take being a prospect and taking shit from people, I am bipolar and have a tendency to snap very easily, also been trained in too many full contact martial arts so that when I do snap its a bloody mess, and the last thing you want is a whole club after you cause you leveled one or two of their members as a prospect.

Although im still very young so who knows, but I do find the fact patch clubs are 90% of the time racist a big problem with my ethos, if a guy wants to ride what does it matter what his skin colour is.
