The Comanchero Motorcycle Club is an Australian outlaw motorcycle club founded in Sydney in 1968 by William George "Jock" Ross. The club has developed into one of Australia's most influential and internationally connected outlaw motorcycle clubs, with chapters throughout Australia and in several countries across Europe, Asia, and Oceania. For periods of its history, it has been described by Australian media and law-enforcement agencies as one of the country's most powerful and feared outlaw motorcycle clubs and a significant organised crime threat.
