CAPTURING A CULTURE - EP04 DANNY LYON: OUTLAW BIKERS 

He casually mentions he was an Outlaw, then the pace picks up. This was a good video. I'd actually like to talk to this guy, he seems very intelligent and also has a lot of sense.

Here after seeing the trailer for the Bikeriders probably my most anticipated film of the year since i'm a biker myself,since 2018

I remember that era. Guys working on their own bikes. Couldn’t afford a shop. Getting run off the road by cagers in trucks. Getting pulled over because of riding. Getting harassed. Oh ya. Those were the days. Freedom was more abundant then. People are still, even more so afraid of freedom. 69 now and I still ride.

Just awesome! Beautiful pictures from the 70's era. I really miss that time era. Straight up Americana! 👍🏼👌🏼😎

I love this. I'm so sick and tired of hearing about the 81.

My Mom dated “Andy” (Chicago VP late 1960’s) when I was a kid. He was kind to me. Met Angels too (Funny Sonny and Cowboy). They were riding together at that time. Partying stuff. 🍀 He’s leaning on the pool table pic.

Excellent!

Danny Lyon is a fly fisherman?!!! I hope he is. Here in Central Oregon I ride My FLH, KTM and FJR1300 to my favorite water to fish. I'm looking forward to seeing this film. Glad to know the back story.

Mesmerizing story ❤

I love the photo of the Outlaw on the bridge. That's the 2nd st bridge over the Ohio River from Jeffersonville Indiana to Louisville KY. I've walked it many times. Always makes me think of home and the bikers I grew up with.

review: it's the Good, Bad, & Ugly- the vintage photos are phenomenal. the interviews are 60/40. the best ones are "Meeting the Angels", "Drag Bike", "Chopped Scooter", and "Chase"- all involving technical aspects of the bikes, and high speed chases. Kathy's account of "Red Dress" is remarkable. So is Cal's account of "Army", and Johnny's "on funerals". However, on some of the interviews you find yourself just reading about how dysfunctional some of these people were. Drinking wine until you wreck you bike, the end up in the hospital, and drinking wine and beer in the hospital snuck in for you ? that's just moronic stupidity, asinine self destruction. "Picnic" about how filthy, disgusting one can be, eating a caterpillar, climbing a hill with a chopper, wrecking, vomiting on yourself, uh...that's cool ? It's not even worth repeating. One guy's many attempts to join the Marines but keeps not being able to get a ride there and sober ? It's not an attractive historic read material. It projects a junkyard life image of slummin' it. Not the open road with your hair blowing in the wind to the rumble of a V-twin. some of these guys were real losers. Yet, there is enough there for a good movie, the trailer looked really good, and I look forward to it....finally, yes, I'd not want the author to leave out one word, or change a thing, cuz it's 100% HONEST and TRUTHFUL. overall great work. I'd love to own, work on, ride one of those vintage bikes. awesome. thanks for adding the extra pics to the newest edition.

I live in Oklahoma they have a clubhouse bout 20 miles from where I live people that live by them say you never hear nothing out of them and the ones they met are nice people

I want to see an actual photo of John Davis. Or did I miss it somewhere in this video.

Danny, neglecting speedlimits doesn't make you "crazier" ... and I'm sure you know that . Anyway, I love all your work. Your book was a big inspiration for me in my younger years. Love and respect, Chris1%er, Outlaws Mechelen, Belgium Motherchapter Europe.

This is Milwaukee-Chicago in mid-60's. I list Milwaukee first, because the Brew City dominated.

The advent of the "outlaw bikers" marked the first time in American history when the natural or normative maturation of boys did not have them automatically progress into men taking their wise patriarchal place in society, rather they diverged into arrested development cases and crime. The phenomena has only become more pronounced since then with the consequent detriment to the country.

the Boozefighters were the original 1%ers
