I was there during the start of the Hells Angels confab. They were treating ALL with respect & consideration. That might possibly be because of the 250+ WY cops there, along with the FBI-US Marshals, but I think not.
I think the Hells Angels are a much different group of people than they were 30-40 years ago. I met one at my RV park/motel complex who was a surgeon and saw another at the Cody Wal-Mart parking lot chewing out 4 WY state troopers who was getting big apologies from them for harassing him over BS. He was a lawyer from Vegas and proved it to them. The people around who saw the stop and patdown actually cheered when he started in on the staties. He demanded and got an apology from them! Rightfully so in my opinion. It was a high dollar police saturation effort over nothing.
I got the impression they were told to fly the flag and flex their muscles to show who was da boss!

Cody locals & shop people were apologizing to the Bikers, saying they DID NOT ask for all the cops. I heard several locals actually tell the cops to go back to where they came from.
I live just outside of Douglas, and one of my friends gal manages a conveniance store near I-25. She said they & bikers in general were more respectfull of her & her clerks than most other tourists. Go figure.
