"Riccos" was a regular bar,but it was the "unofficial"biker bar of
Portsmouth NH.Even if you weren't drinking,that night,all of the
bikers,stopped there,on their way out & in,just to make sure that
no one had a problem.People that hated each other,stood up for
each other,because they were Riccos regulars.It was a rowdy
place.The owner(Ricco)always carried three(3) handguns,& the
Lowell Mass.,enforcer for their chapter,of the Hells Angels,rented
an apartment,upstairs but there was still something happening
everynight!Outsiders(wife included)didn't understand the rapor of the place,but it was a "classic"! Irish
P.S.Ricco died of cancer,a few years ago.He can't ever be replaced!I went to the "enforcers"(Flip)baptism.The last I saw him.
he was going to a "Bible" school,in Vermont,& riding a 10 speed,
yellow English bycicle.I guess everything changes,over time!
