No Surrender Motorcycle Club is a Dutch outlaw motorcycle club. No Surrender was founded in 2013 by Klaas Otto. By 2014, the club claimed over 600 members, and membership exceeded 900 in 2018.[citation needed] The leaders are mainly Dutch trailer residents or of Turkish origin.[2]

On 16 February 2016, Otto announced he left the club.[1]

In 2014, three members of the group were reported to have traveled to Iraq to fight alongside Kurdish forces against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria in Iraq and Syria,[3] an act which is not in itself a crime, according to authorities in the Netherlands.[4][5]

In June 2015, it was announced that one of the volunteers, Nomad Ron, had died in a traffic accident.[6]

On January 13, 2017, the clubhouse in Emmen was raided by police. According to justice, the clubhouse was trading in hard and soft drugs.[7][8]
