Members of the Australian outlaw biker gxxg the Rebels rode into Taranaki at the weekend.
Police say up to 12 bikers, believed to be patched members of the Rebels, arrived in Stratford on Friday, stayed overnight at a motor camp and left the next morning.
Members of the public contacted the Taranaki Daily News, believing the police had stopped the gxxg on New Plymouth's Coronation Ave about 1pm.
But that was a different group of bikers of mainly locals, police said.
The force was on alert after three Taranaki-based patched Rebels members were arrested last week in a police drug operation.
Detective Sergeant Charlie Kawana, of New Plymouth CIB, said police were aware of the group that arrived in Stratford.
