About Us
As mentioned before The Victims of Amadán, We all come from different backgrounds, different jobs, different life problems and philosophies.
So how do you single out one common denominator that describes all our individual personalities into something that sums up our general identity… Simple, By relentlessly messing with eachother.
Some of us drink, smoke, respect authority, have a job, have a life, have kids. Some of us are or were SCAdians or Dagorhirians or both. But on the other hand, some of us aren’t, don’t and never were. But we do like to harass each other, have fun and none of us seem to have a problem with making an ass of ourselves from time to time.
Some might say we’re a little off. Some might say we’re rude, obnoxious or just plain nuts.
So this, along with the our love to ride (And lets face it, ain’t none of us rich.) bring us together as The Victims of Amadán.
We are just a bunch of people that like to ride and have fun.
We do not use or carry drugs at any time while riding.
This group rides legal and clean both on our persons and our vehicles.
Amadán
Amadán is a figure from Celtic Mythology. He is a trickster and often depicted as a mischievous god who can take on any form he wished and would rather play music than wage war.
It is said that one touch by his hand would cause madness.
Amadán’s influence over the centuries is still appartent today. dictionary.com and urbandictionary.com both define Amadán as “fool”.
It is for this reason we pay homage to Amadán, because we are mischievous and a little foolish.
Our Logo
Our Logo, you’ll notice, is reminiscent of the Tarot Card representing the FOOL. The FOOL Card has a double meaning associated with it. At first glance it appears that this idiot is riding carelessly over a cliff. This would imply that this guy is too dumb to know that he should stop.
On the other hand, since we do not see what is beyond the edge, we do not know how foolhardy this guy really is. There might be something to catch him or the drop might not be as far as we perceive it.
This would imply an enlightenment that others have not attained or unable to comprehend.
This relates to every rider that straddles a bike and takes to the road. Because any person who willingly rides a 2 wheeled machine on the roads without any protection between themselves and the pavement or cars, IS truly TOUCHED in the head. But the enjoyment, fun and thrill of doing it, is something that not everyone can comprehend…
