this needs so many more views

The Bike Riders, in my opinion, is a documentary that showcases a raw, honest glimpse of bike culture, and quite simply put, it is what it is. It’s what happened, and there isn’t anymore. Danny Lyon is a true-grit genius with a highly perceptive gift for seeing beyond the dark. He bravely immersed himself in bike culture when it was feared by outsiders, including the police. His recordings and striking photos invite us to experience a snapshot in time, capturing the dawn of bike gang culture from the golden era of good ol' boys/charming rebels to its unsettling decline into a more sinister world. Thank you, Mr. Lyon, for sharing the excitement, goof ball moments, and dangerous happenings, and for inspiring bike gang culture into an iconic era, helping clear the mud on the misunderstood biker lifestyle.

So I am curious after watching the movie . The kid unnamed is that Harry Bowman referenced ? Great movie . And thank you for sharing .

Wow amazing interview

Is that 2 dudes making out? 4:04? 😮

merde pour une fois qu'un film de ce genre est réussi (a part quelque moment ) chapeau les gars

“Are you turning into a gay” U can’t b anti fascist and homophobic

TRACY 168,LET'S GET DOWN.

My bud, 16 yrs old, had an RD 400, no plates. Never needed them once, cops couldn't catch him...

Cool pic at 02:54, an Outlaw giving an HA a ride, apparently in friendship. You wouldn't see that today, sadly.

It's pronounced Lou-uh-vull. FWIW

1:15:21 oh mr clash😮😮😮

Why on earth did the editor put these photos against a glaringly bright white background? Ouch.

Triumphs looking good

That picture at 4:51 is very cool !

They speak like 62 IQ specimens on the interview tapes, and look just like it in the photos on the post credits. They were not square jawed blue eyed hollywood stars everyone envied as the movie would like you to believe. The whole story is fake.

12:46 oh creez

gooooood

The movie by the same name is great

I keep hearing from people who find the movie "boring" and "not enough action" or "I thought it would be more 'Sons of Anarchy'," etc. I'm not sure the marketing team behind the movie did a good enough job preparing people for a character study film that's basically just people hanging out and having relationships, as the film takes place BEFORE the time when biker gangs got into serious crime. They advertised it as if it was basically "GoodFellas on bikes" and that's just not what it is. It's a fantastic movie and very much in the vein of mid-70's - early 80's character films. It's not "Fast & the Furious".

Cool

Seen it last night dam good show 👏

I'm here for The Bikeriders (2024)

The midwestern bikers had that real 1950s greaser look, as opposed to the west coast, where it was more of a hippy style.

I enjoyed until the very end. Thank you.

Impressive that Lyon is 8 years older than me and this energetic! I'm a lifetime rider, but dirt not street. I was a teenager when these were taken and noticing even then that the "biker" types in Jr High and High School always wore jeans and vests and such...which were illegal in my school. Haha. Most of the women btw seemed to have giant 50s beehive hairdos. Outstanding stuff for early immersive journalism. I like the framing of the photos on many of the shots: out the window, fence in the foreground, etc.

Good on you for repping the Abe’s fly shop shirt. Best place for all your fishing gear and trips outa Navajo dam Nm.

So rad

the bikers did not evolve from rock n roll. It was the WW2 vets.

Some of the best motorcycle culture pictures i’ve ever seen, all the best from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 wish you could do an exhibit down here

this is what i remember. this is why i started messing around with old bikes. because THEY WERE CHEAP!! the people were not as stereotyped as they are today. it was a poor guy's sport. fun! (by the way, the music was great; not the usual 'tough guy' cheese...)

Awesome...

Just saw it. I thought it was great.

I wish this was longer!!!! Loved it!

So when you think about it it was the Outlaws that started the culture not the HellsAngels. Everyone is saying Hollister or HellsAngels. It all started with the Outlaws.

Nice!

Love this. I’ve admired Lyon’s photography for many years. Never knew that he was a 1%er.

Nothing wrong with being a little crazy.
