Bikies however, are pretty much criminal organisations who like riding bikes. In my city, they run things, drugs, loansharking, club security (which is how I know a lot of them) etc. There's about 5 major gangs, and they're pretty fucking hardcore, and pretty violent between themselves. From time to time it spills out into the clubs, guns and stuff start going off.
Ah, I got it now.

In America, this would be a 'biker', except we just call them "people who like to ride bikes for pleasure":



Then we have the Hells Angels, the Outlaws, and other gangs:



Here's the challenge: Walk up to a Hell's Angel and call him a "bikie".

He's waiting!
