The Lone Legion Motorcycle Association[failed verification] was an outlaw motorcycle club located in Blenheim, New Zealand.[2][3]
The Lone Legion established itself in Blenheim during the 1970s,[2] and considered the town its exclusive territory, successfully excluding other gangs from town until about 2007.[4]
In September 2007, a fatal shooting outside the clubhouse resulted in four gang members being charged with murder, with one being found guilty.[5] In the aftermath of the shooting, the gang demolished its clubhouse, apparently in anticipation of Police seeking a court order to demolish fortifications.[6] In 2010, gang members built a warehouse on a new site.[7] The family of the murder victim criticized both the Marlborough District Council and Police for allowing the gang to establish a new pad.[8]
According to media and Police the club is a member of the "A-Team", an alliance between several NZ biker groups including the Outcasts MC, the Epitaph Riders MC, the Forty-Fives MC, the Southern Vikings MC, Satan's Slaves MC, Sinn Fein MC and the Lost Breed MC.[9]
In 2019, Carl Bradley, writing in the NZ Herald, reported that the Lone Legion had patched over to the Outlaws MC.[10]
