This accident occurred at a time when, a few kilometers away, in Saint-Denis-de-Brompton, a huge gathering of outlaw bikers was taking place in which all members in good standing of the Hells Angels in the province were required to participate, by virtue of their internal regulations.

The event, which takes place throughout the weekend, brings together several hundred Hells Angels, members of around thirty supporter clubs and sympathizing clubs.
This annual gathering, called the First Run, is above all a visibility operation and a show of force for the biker gang.
This is their first official hike of the year.

Throughout the weekend, bikers will party at the haunt of the Sherbrooke chapter of the Hells Angels, located in an isolated area of Saint-Denis-de-Brompton, a small municipality of 4,500 inhabitants.
The event obviously takes place under heavy police surveillance.
