The Moped Army is an organization of moped enthusiasts, centered on the organization's website which serves as a catalyst for the spread of moped culture and the organization of moped-related events throughout the US and Canada. Founded in 1997 as the Decepticons in Kalamazoo, Michigan by Daniel Weber-Kastner, Simon King, and Brennan Sang, and as of September 2016 several branches have retired and become Emeritus status. The branches each have a unique name, often inspired by the city in which they are based, and are self-governing; implementing their own criteria regarding membership and activities. With the motto of "Swarm and Destroy", the Moped Army has been the subject of a graphic novel by Paul Sizer and a documentary called Swarm and Destroy.
Members of the ==emeritus== Chicago branch of Moped Army, Peddy Cash, were featured in the music video for the song "Re-Education (Through Labor)" by the American rock band Rise Against, which was released in September 2008. In the video they are seen riding their mopeds through a city, placing home-made bombs on government buildings.
Hollywood Holt is a rapper originating from Chicago Illinois. He was loosely associated with the Moped Army branch Peddy Cash but eventually became aligned with an offshoot called Murder Club.
