When I was a member of a MC, we’d get profiled quite often. For example if there was a Coalition of Clubs meeting or a big rally, it was quite common for there to be a vehicle safety checkpoint right outside the entrance. Anyone in a vehicle would be waved though, they’d only stop motorcycles. The roadblocks would be local cops, state troopers, and Other guys in plain clothes that I assume were FBI. There would also be guys in plain black BDU style uniforms in full combat load out armed with M16s. Everyone would be ordered to shut off and remain on their bike while DLs were collected from everyone and taken to an unmarked van. While this was going on, guys with cameras would take pictures of each of us from the front and back, making sure they could clearly see our patch. After they were done, our licenses were retuned and we were allowed to go on into the meeting.

My only two experiences with MC's were both good. I had my 69 Chrysler convertible breakdown in the middle of nowhere in Harrison County, Texas (Marshall). Two Banditos stopped and figured out what was wrong. I got back on my way. They were super nice.

Right after I graduated undergrad, I was on a date and my car stalled while I was driving. I rolled into the closest parking lot, which was a small biker car. This was before cell phones. They were very nice and helpful.

ETA: I forgot about being a moron in h.s. We went to the FFA state convention in San Antonio. We were told not to wander around downtown (it was rough in places in those days). So, we wandered around in our FFA jackets. We ended up in an alley behind a Mexican biker bar. As we went by, a couple of the guys came up to us. We thought it was going to be death. The guys said "you kids need to get back to your hotel, you don't need to be down here."
