Police were prepared for trouble, but said all went well at the service in Old Orchard Beach and the clubhouse in Dayton.

- The massive biker presence police expected at a memorial service for an Outlaws motorcycle gang leader fizzled in this community, but hundreds of riders gathered earlier Saturday at the group's clubhouse in Dayton.

About 50 family members and close friends visited the Cathedral Pines Funeral Chapel to pay their respects to Thomas Mayne, the regional treasurer of the club who was killed here on June 15 during a raid by federal agents.

A handful of bikers attended the service that was heavily patrolled by local police.
Old Orchard Beach Police Chief Dana M. Kelley said he talked with representatives of the organization in anticipation of a surge of club members in the area. He said he added five police officers to patrol the area for a total of 18 officers Saturday.

Kelley said the Outlaws members have frequented the downtown bars this past week. He said they "have all been polite" and assured police that they "are not looking for trouble."
"They just want to come and pay their respects to Mr. Mayne and be on their way," Kelley said. "So far, that is what it has been."

Earlier Saturday, about 250 bikers attended a heavily guarded memorial service at the clubhouse. Sheriff's deputies were outside and would not permit media on the property.
An American flag flew at half-staff outside. After the tribute, about 100 participants went on a ride.
