Yea for me as soon as my youngest son graduated high school i got a harley and started riding again. I was the only paycheck in the house so i waited until they were nearly grown. I was able to connect with other guys that ride and have enjoyed the good times and the long rides we did together over the years. I dig it.
I just saw a interview with Alex Wella, he said the club started in 1969 and he joined in 1972. So no, he didn't start the club. But has been international president for decades, so he must be a great one.... I don't like correcting people, but facts are facts!
My son here in australia is a rebels MC member. Some people ask me what do they really get up to. My answer? Just a bunch of guys who love the club, their brothers, their Harley’s and enjoying life👍. RFFR🙂
If you see group photos of Rebels in Australia the striking thing is how many of them have long service patches. Most clubs have a fairly high turnover in members, but, with the Rebels, hundreds of their members have been in the club 10+ years. I would love to know the history of how the Rebels became the largest club in Australia, with chapters even is small towns out in the middle of nowhere, and also why they are so much more successful in retaining their members.
Lol that's short as he'll most clubs I've known takes years as a supporter "friend of the club" then "hangaround" then "prospect" 5 or six rides before becoming a prospect is crazy lol
Like he said, it’s about brotherhood and loyalty. You’d never see a member turn on there own unless someone turned first. At that point your not being loyal, nor showing brother hood. So why do you deserve the respect of being treated like one? You know nothing about loyalty, clearly.
I had mates that are with the Rebs.I havnt seen them for 10 years I was going to be apart of the club the fella who was going to bring me in died years back I’m way too old now but if I had a bike now who knows ……. Nah I’m too old but my close mates are Maltese I never had a laugh as I did with my Maltese mates great bunch of blokes anyway all the best to all the Maltese Rebs. From Sydney Australia .my uncle had a tattoo “viva Malta”so to the Rebs. in Malta”Viva Rebels” cheers.
Wow, riding the highways and byways of Malta must be so cool. 316 sq. miles. Where do you ride on the second afternoon? Well at least you wont be wasting money on petrol. And you get to eat mum's food every day. This is hilarious.
I have never experienced that. Perhaps Being a blood relative has never proved difficult..You behave and know your place and understand what's public and what is not. Not that hard is it!@GV
From Australia 🇦🇺 why don't you tell the truth. Guys that like to ride bikes 🤣 is that what you call intimidation and nefarious activities. This is so pg and far from the truth it's hilarious. So tell em about blood in 😂 but sure U just like bikes right😂😅😅
I know the story Alex is one tough man so was his brother you don’t walk up to someone fight them take their patch and club unless you are tough as nails then allow them to be apart of what you have taken that’s class.a man’s man .

His brother started the rebels but died a few years after starting it. So Alex took over in 72

fall asleep at the bar , wake up with a patch
@@_416_ that's how it should be but the scene is fucked here in Australia. Rebs especially.
@@MrDeano-eu9rg damn, ya the established clubs in Canada take a long time
Sounds like a good club in Malta .
Passtizzi’s for everyone!
No respect or brotherhood dont be fooled they would turn on there own ..
Hell no you don't know what your talking about

@Andrew Gibson-Vella is it actually you tho?
I LOVE the REBELS and I LOVE ALEX
VELLA... Your AMERICAN GIRL... 🇺🇲

Some dye for watching a drag race
Wonder if they have us chapters..
In some countries they ride on the left
In some countries they ride on the right
In Malta we ride in the shade
Alex Vella was nt the founder of the Rebels , It was founded in Albion, Brisbane by local bikers.
Nah he didn't Clint Jacks actually founded the rebels in 1967, they were called the confederates, hence the confederate flag
Whatever
@@suemontague3151 Well said was thinking that the other day.
So many people think Vella was the beginning not even
Seems like you all no fuk all get ya facts right before thinking ya no
We need time to bond.
Trust takes time to mature
Yam bolt does it for me😀60 thou miles.
Ride what u have its the journey
Not the ethos
so if anyone buys a Harley in Malta the club approaches them and asks them if they wanna hang around?
seem like a couple of good blokes, very diplomatic in their answers.
🤣😂

They started out as The Confederates in QLD circa 1968/69.
Seems like a 😎 bloke

The Rebals MC are truly with the devil all ganged up with the devil ordering to torture just one human being
For 27 years the Rebals MC tortured me
With mostly men and then started fighting for me then decided to just ditch out
Buy a Harley, ride it, get approached......
Common now..... lol
100 families
Happy to act all innocent and friendly to youtube ..not fooling anyone with the meth and violence.
Did you not listen at the start
Don't watch it then, tit
@@doesyomamaknowtho1468 think i will to keep annoying ppl like urself!
@@brownpunk1794 your most likely on meth and punch holes in walls when you can't get any ...
Anyone who thinks "freedom" still exists is deluded.
@Bronson You got me there ol mate.
YA KNOW
i wana be a bikie
The sportsters one of the most selling harley if they didn't sell them harley wouldn't be still going..you can get them 1200..going good 😊
In New Zealand it's the VROD those fuckers are everywhere
Ride it like you stole it...
The Rebals MC committe crimes for someone then run away when it's a fight about it they just ditch out
Started in Queensland not NSW and Alex didn’t start the club
Malta is really small in terms of kilometres of Bitumen.
Rebels don't join bike clubs and then be told what to do and who to hate.
Only 1 year to get a patch 😂😂😂 takes at least 3 years if you're an outstanding prospect in western countries
Nah you gotta be voted by all members to get your patch yall don't know shit🤣🤣
When do you get the gun? Is it provided or do you bring your own? Where on the bike to you hide the drugs? I really want to join a biker gang.
First rule of MCs: stop watching Sons of Anarchy.
Bring Alex back to oz. From the Greek brotherhood
I think they were scared of women yelling at them and ditched out
From Australia 🇦🇺 why don't you tell the truth.
Guys that like to ride bikes 🤣 is that what you call intimidation and nefarious activities.
This is so pg and far from the truth it's hilarious.
So tell em about blood in 😂 but sure U just like bikes right😂😅😅
Alex is lucky we are all stuck here in Australia with the bullshit laws and rediculouse police powers😠
It wasn't founded by Alex you should know that !!!!
I know the story Alex is one tough man so was his brother you don’t walk up to someone fight them take their patch and club unless you are tough as nails then allow them to be apart of what you have taken that’s class.a man’s man .
It’s been 10 years since I was told the story forgive my memory and please correct me if I’m wrong cheers.
It isn't ' freedom ' ...rather narrcissism materialism. Poor Alex. Spinning out on a tiny Island.
