With the bloodless chill of a corporate takeover, in 2000, the Choice was absorbed into the Hells Angels in what’s known in the biker world as a “patch-over.”

The Choice, founded in 1965, were no more and its members became Hells Angels.

Now, biker scion Harley Davidson Guindon, 39, has stated in a series of online posts that he intends to resurrect Satan’s Choice, once the second-largest motorcycle gang in the world, Metroland reports.

“The Choice is back,” Guindon said on Facebook, describing the revival as his “destiny.”

“I am refounding the Satan’s Choice, with the permission of my father, who I have made an honorary member. I have patched over several clubs.”

Guindon’s father, Bernie, was the first president of Satan’s Choice and one of the gang’s founders.

Exactly what the resurrection means is anyone’s guess.

“We are aware of the re-emergence of the Satan’s Choice Motorcycle Club in our region and the DRPS Biker Enforcement Unit will continue to monitor for criminal activities associated to all motorcycle clubs operating in Durham Region,” Durham Regional Police said in a statement.
