If you enjoy riding your motorcycle, then you know how important and how consuming this hobby can be for someone. It's about more than a part-time recreational affair, but rather when you start riding a bike, it becomes a part of your entire being and you feel a deep connection with those who you enjoy riding with. It's for this reason that there are a number of different biker patches that you can use to display this connection with your fellow riders or brothers.
Many times when people think about others riding motorcycles together what comes to mind is instantly that of that stereotypical motorcycle gang; however, this stereotypical image isn't and really hasn't ever been accurate. Motorcycle riding brothers can be groups of police officers, firefighters, and any other group of people. People use biker patches to show their solidarity with their friends and to try to dispel the myths and rumors of what it means to be a bike rider. The decorations range from those with eagles with wings outspread to pictures of several motorcyclists riding off into the sunset. If you happen to know someone who is in the military or who has served or died in active service, there are even specialized biker patches that deal with this subject matter in a respectful manner.
Something else that is good about the patches is that they can be easily attached to a number of clothing items with the use of an iron. This is because they are coated with a special adhesive that reacts to heat. If you are applying the patch to something leather then you will want to sew it on around the edges instead because the heat from the iron could scar or damage the leather permanently.
