Bad Reputation Is Not Their Thing
Hells Angels and some other biker clubs refer to themselves as a one-percenter biker club. This is a phrase that spans over 50 years and was said as they believed an average of 99% of bikers were given a bad name based on 1% of troublemakers who posed as bikers.
They used the name as a way of distancing themselves from those who many categorize as being negative. For sure, the Hells Angels have been classified as that a lot, especially seeing a lot of their members have been arrested and charged for a lot of crimes.

International Reach
The Hells Angels started in California, but by the time the early 1960s kicked in, then were gradually expanding internationally. In 1961, a charter began in Auckland, New Zealand, the first charter outside of California. Since then, the club began to expand and reach other borders and began to spread around the world.
The first European charter started in London in 1969, and from then until now, there is an estimated 275 charter in Europe alone. At the start of the 1970s, new charters started to open in places like South Africa, Brazil, Australia, Eastern Europe, and many other places. To date, other areas are in the pipeline to open new charters.
