HISTORY
of The GunnRunnaz: Part 1
1999 - 2012
GunnRunnaz
originally started with Mingo and LiteDogg in 1999 under the
name "Independent Riders".
Next came Vonstallin and Foolah Mike in 2002. For 2 years
the 4 of us rode, partied and Chilled. Early In 2003 Lil J-Rock
(Vonstallins Brother) made the team and Cannon made cameo night ops and back road rides.
In 2003 Cannon who predominately was track with occasional midnight
"GunnRunnz", help come up with the name and Idea of the GunnRunnaz.
GunnRunnaz is named after the late 1980's classic hustlers run
from DC to Baltimore making drug and weapons drop-offs and exchanges. This
old and far gone illegal act was the perfect name since we
made frequent runs from DC to Baltimore. The Gunn was your
motorcycle. The Runn was DC Rt 50 to 495 to 95 N to Baltimore and
back. In 2002 we refered to our night runs as Gunn Runns....and later we took on the name to reflect our 5 man crew.
Mingo was the original Training officer and OG of the Crew along with Litedog. They had a harsh way of training. You Go Hard, or You Go Home.
2012 A New Day and A New Gunn:
Gunn Runnaz and Road Runnaz have always been lifelong friends,
and was a good idea to add the remaining members of
Road Runnaz who still rode non-stop into the folds of the Gunn
Runnaz. They have always felt like Gunn Runnaz just like the Gunn
Runnaz have always felt like Road Runnaz. Most of these friendships
are more than 10 years old, some as much as 17 years old. We Welcomed
the Road Runnaz into the group. With all the ground work, information
and overall feel of the Crew, we got mentoring from an established
well ran club.
Since this was a new/fresh start
we redesign the old GR logo and came up with a new one. The new
3 Triskelion Skull.
While much of GR stayed the same as far as how we conduct business it felt
right to make the commitment to becoming official. Gunn Runnaz are built
off of "BBR"... Bikes,
Brotherhood and Riding. Nothing Else Matters.
Gunn Runnaz Patch History: 2002-2012
1. The Way of the Gunn: Gunn Runnaz
originally started out with a a Gun scope with the letters
G and R overlaping forming a gun.
2. A Bullet to the Head: The
next logo represented the age old symbol of death and danger, A single skull
with a bullet hole to the head.
3. The Triskelion Skull:
When it became time to go from boys to men and make the club legit, we decided
to change the symbol for a new age with old values. The New symbol
of 3 skulls connected
aka the Triskelion Skull, symbolize
the (OGR) Three original Gunn Runnaz: (Mingo, Foolah Mike and Vonstallin) who
were still riding together and the remaining Gunn Runnaz. The connection looking
in all directions depics moving forward looking in all directions West, North,
East. It is a play on the "Hear no evil, See No Evil, Speak no evil" Except we
are doing the opposit.
Black Death, Red Blood...
