Rogues Chopper Show, 27 March 2016

The Rogues attending the Peking Outlaws party. They used to go there with the Mothers Freak MC from Gothenburg. Peter Longhair used to be in that club, who some of the Deathtraps met a couple years ago in Belgium and then again in Sweden. Pretty cool.

Rogues Party!

-Mitch Cotie

Rogues MC, in Opmeer Holland, are having their 36th anniversary party this August 1st. A huge party with all kinds of people and clubs from all over the world. This year will be a little different, as earlier this year, some doosch bag burnt down their clubhouse. Hopefully after this party they will have the funds to rebuild the clubhouse. Go support a great club of great fucking guys!

Opmeer president Beer, made this trophy for the longest ride on a chopper to their party. Deathtraps Wolf and Jonathan won it last year for traveling 10,000 km in Europe, and ending their trip in Holland for the party.

What the clubhouse used to look like. This is in their bar.

B.B. Designz

Our good friend, Rogues President, and all around good fucking guy, Beer, has started a new company call B.B. Designz.

Handmade in Holland, Beer is making all kinds of things chopper related and more. We're lucky to have two of his projects here in California: Wolf and Jonathan got one for riding the farthest to the Rogues 35th anniversary party last summer, and Jonathan got one of his bike as a present.

Check out his website for more info. He can do any bike you want!

 And on a side note: people making orders from the online store, packages get sent out at the end of every week. It has typically been two weeks for things to arrive to Europe, and a little longer to Australia and NZ. Thanks for the orders, and we'll see everyone on the road!

European Invasion

A couple of weeks ago, we were lucky to get 4 people from Europe here in California all at the same time. Emmanuel from Brittany, Richy from Sweden and the Jokers, and Beer and Els from Holland and the Rogues of course. Everyone had different departure times, but were able to spend some good times all together.

Rogues MC 35th Anniversary Party

One of the main reasons for coming back to Europe this year, was so we could go to the Rogues 35th anniversary, in Opmeer. With the convincing of Wolf and Baby Clint, we decided to make a full trip out of it, and as you know, ship the bikes to Europe almost three months before the Rogues party. 

The party for us, has been almost like the grand finale of our trip. Along with being a great party, it was also the place that we were going to be able to meet up with almost everyone from the road one last time. 

But also in the back of our minds, this party represented the end of our trip. And I don't think we could have asked for a better way to finish this adventure, than this party.

Unicycle rain delay

After the rain, the grass was too wet for the unicycle races. Not wanting to disappoint the crowd, Gerry from the Rogues and Morgan from the Animals did what any respectable biker would do, and took matters into their own hands. Mud drags, doughnuts, ending in a burnout competition. Morgan also showed us his stunt driving/crashing abilities. 

Beer made a couple of awesome awards for the party, and we were lucky enough to receive the one for the longest ride to the party. Officially I think we are just over 10,000 km. With that being said, we never meant to go that far, we just got lost and it took us 10,000 km to find our way back! Thanks Beer

My bike also got the award for most empty beer cups.

Sunday evening was reserved for some relaxation, delivered Chinese food, and a chance for everyone who was still around to help fill in each other's "blank spots" of the weekend. 

A huge thanks to all the Rogues for putting on this great party. As you all know, this won't be the last time you will see us! Thanks again, see you in California!
