Hells Angels. Bandidos. Outlaws. Vagos.What would you do if a biker sat beside you in a bar? What about if a group of leather-and-denim-clad tough guys established a clubhouse in your neighborhood? Television and movies glamorize bikers as freedom fighters, men who do things their own way, brothers-in-arms who party all the time and ride Harleys to escape everyday life, while news reports paint them as criminals, responsible for drug trafficking, brutal assaults and murder. What really goes on behind those heavily secured steel clubhouse doors?In The Secret Life of Bikers, bestselling true crime author Jerry Langton tells the stories of the men who live the biker life as they have never been told before. Langton has interviewed many bikers over the past decade and shares their stories, often in their own words, in these pages. This book offers rare insights into the workings of motorcycle clubs: the hierarchies, the clubhouses, the parties, the initiation rituals, the brawls, the bodies and the brotherhood of blood.
