Joining such a club is easy and requires little in the way of ongoing commitment. Patches are available for purchase by anyone who turns up to a rally or meeting and the main goal of the club is to enhance the social life of its members. At the other end of the scale are the MCs (Motorcycle Clubs). The absence of that one letter makes a world of difference.
