Okay, I have to admit that this story made me giggle. Robbing a place where a motorcycle group was hanging out. I have known some bikers, and they can be very nice people, but as a general rule, it would usually seem wiser not to threaten them.
Hapless robbers target biker meeting
By CNN's Saeed Ahmed
(CNN) -- Two masked and machete-wielding men who barged into a club in Sydney, Australia, couldn't have picked a worse night for their robbery -- a monthly meeting of bikers.

The robbers chose the wrong night to burst into the club where the Southern Cross Cruiser Club have their monthly meeting.
About 50 burly bikers fought back with tables and chairs -- pretty much anything that wasn't bolted down. One would-be robber was tied up; the other in the hospital.
Police arrested both.
"These guys were absolutely dumb as bricks," Jerry Vancornewal, leader of the bikers, told CNN Thursday. "I can't believe they saw all the bikes parked up front and they were so stupid that they walked past in."
