Hi folks. Some of our members/riders have recently purchased this patch through ebay from a supplier in Poland. A suggestion was made that these be made available for purchase through the SRA store. Although it is a great looking patch, unfortunately if it was attached on the back of a jacket/vest it could be regarded as a rocker. Members safety could be at risk from OMG's. SRA does not endorse the patch and it will not make them available through the SRA store. However if members/riders wish to purchase them through ebay and wear them on their back, they are more than welcome to do so, but do it at their own risk. It's a sad reflection of our society that we don't have the freedom of wearing nice things to show pride in our group without fear of being subjected to intimidation or possibly worse by a minority group.  |

Be very, very vary of putiing rockers on your jacket. You may well"get away with" a patch, most 1% clubs don't worry about them too much, BUT if you add a rocker, you're asking for grief from them.
You may also find that some establishments won't let you in wearing a patch.

Ok, excuse my ignorance. Am I the only one who doesn't know what a "rocker" is?

I had to read up on them, Azure. Seems they relate to Motorcycle Clubs mostly - like the outlaw types. I've seen this patch that I like:  |

Hi all, I agree with George they look nice but I will not be putting one on as I don't want or need the shit that it may cause. Which is sad that we can't do or wear what we want. And Kevin If that is the lone wolf patch that is definitely a no-no to put on.

Really? It's all too difficult to keep up with. I'll stick to my DriRider jacket.  . |

As far as I'm aware, a back patch is ok. Rockers cause the problems because "Outlaw gangs" see that as a threat for their perceived territory.
If the govt could actually do what they are saying and get rid of the "Outlaw gangs" then we wouldn't have a problem but......................... if you really think about it, those guys cause more problems for us than the cops do.
