BIKER - Bandit Mexican - Bandidos

The Bandidos were founded by Don Chambers in Texas. He named the motorcycle club in honour of the Mexican bandits who lived by their own rules and he recruited members from biker bars locally in Houston as well as in Corpus Christi, Galveston, and San Antonio. Like other outlaw motorcycle clubs, they call themselves "One Percenters", a phrase coined by the former president of the American Motorcyclist Association who once stated that 99 percent of motorcyclists were law-abiding citizens and 1 percent "outlaws." Their motto is "We are the people our parents warned us about."
