| The four London chapters have an interweaved history and members that date back to 1969, when the Outcasts MC were founded and grew, diminished and grew again until in the spring of 2000 the Outcasts MC evolved and joined what was and is the only worldwide motorcycle club that are purely about biking and brotherhood! |

The AOA, The Outlaws MC had been formed in McCook county, Illinois, in 1935. And so the London chapters of the Outcasts mc being: Family, Bysen, Thames & Lost Tribe came to make up the London Chapters of the
Outlaws MC |
1935, The McCook Outlaws Motorcycle Club is established out of Matilda`s Bar on old Route 66 in McCook, Illinois outside Chicago. |

1946, although the Club stayed together during World War II, like most organizations at that time, the Clubs activities were limited. In May of 1946 the first major post war motorcycle event in the midwest was held at Soldier Field, in Chicago. |
1950, from its` original charter members of 1935 the Club grew in size, with members from all over the Chicago area. The Club decided to change its` name from The McCook Outlaws to The Chicago Outlaws and moved out of
McCook, re-establishing itself in Chicago. |

It was also decided to completely change the Club logo. A small skull replaced a winged motorcycle and old english style letters were adopted. This design was embroidered on a black shirt and hand painted on leather jackets. 1954, saw the addition of the Crossed Pistons to the original small skull. This design was embroidered on a black western style shirt with white piping. |
1959, the Skull and Crossed Pistons were redesigned, making them much larger with more detail. 1960, saw the last major design change to the Club logo, looking the same style as it does today. 1963, the Outlaws MC became an official member of the then functional 1%er Brotherhood of Clubs, making it the first true 1%er Club east of the Mississippi. |
