Life / Theft of a Golden Mug in Poland [24]
In many ways , villages in Poland are a bit like the wild west....
You have to let people know you won,t take any sh1t or you will just become a full time victim for every scumbag in the area...
Even more so if you live alone and appear to be a rich stranger in town....

Life / Theft of a Golden Mug in Poland [24]
Its just the way they do things in the villages...
Nobody in the village was hostile to me because of what my friends did , and even the Police did not bother about it...
one of the bandits did not realise that his beating was the end of the matter as far as we were concerned and ran to the Police whining that he feared that this biker gang were going to kill him....
When the cops asked why the bikers had beaten him he told them that he had stolen from one of them...
The cops just laughed and said he was an idiot who deserved to get beaten....
I know this because one of my friends is a Policewoman in the town...

Life / Theft of a Golden Mug in Poland [24]
I live on the edge of a small village...some people who had been round my place having coffee came one night and helped themselves to some power tools from my workshop...
I knew instantly who had done it , and passed to the Police not only the names of the thieves , but also their addresses....
The cops came , took fingerprints and all that stuff , but eventually wrote to me to say nothing could be done...
Then some of my friends in the motorcycle club got to hear about it.... A dozen of the biggest and ugliest of them came with me to talk to the bandits , they got the crap beaten out of them , problem solved....
Not had anything stolen since....

News / Belarus - grateful ally of Poland...? [16]
Yeah..its a bit sad really..
Belarus suffered a lot under the Germans , and was not treated very well by the Russians either....
Rather a shame that after finally freeing themselves from Soviet domination they end up with a leader that wants to keep running things the way the Soviets did....

Of course you can,t ignore the fact that the Angels and a rival club in Sweden were shooting each other with guns and rocket grenades over a drugs turf war....
The cops stood on it hard only when the public outcry got very loud after an innocent child was killed by shrapnel from a car bomb intended to kill one of the bikers....
but most of us just want to ride our bikes , have fun , and not bother anyone....
I am sure my Danish friends will have a great time in Poland , make some great friends , and leave with happy memories of Poland....

I have been to biker rallies in many countries , but i think the Polish ones have been the most fun ones for me...
Perhaps because the Poles have for so long not had the freedom to have such events , now they have , they really have a good party....
I think my Danish friends will be gone from Poland before the 22nd of the month , which is a pity as my club is holding a rally near my farm....
It will be one hell of a party....!

Somewhere on the net is a video of some Polish dipstick that decided to get a bit close to a Bison and have a bit of fun with it...
The bison butted him , chucked him fifteen feet in the air then wandered off into the forest....
Silly man....
How about staying on topic?
