How It Began
The Highwaymen TNT were formed in Washington, DC, in May 1978. The eight founding members had a vision for this new club: diversity and fun. This vision still remains as our basic principle. The club was formed in protest to the orthodoxy of other leather clubs. It is our belief that the leather community is dynamic and evolving. That there will always be new ways to express our fetishes and kinks through dress.
Rather than identifying ourselves as a motorcycle club (MC), the Highwaymen designated our club “TNT.” These three letters have become the true meaning of our club. TNT stands for Trash ’n Travel. We are a fun and trashy group that loves to travel. We travel around the world attending various leather events while representing our club. Through the years, the Highwaymen TNT have grown from a core group of eight, to nearly 20 members. Our TNT family continues to grow. We are very proud to call DC’s Uproar our home bar.
