Summary: One more thing...
Comment: I need to add one more thing to my review above. There are a number of glaring errors in the book that call into question how much first person research Mr. Lavigne did and how much was based on hearsay from bikers, law enforcement, or other sources. The first error may be considered minor - a map purporting to show the locations of various HAMC clubs places San Bernardino in Ventura county instead of San Bernardino County. Others include claiming that the P.O.B.O.B's where founded in San Bernardino (they were founded in Bloomington - hence the acronym, "Pissed Off Bastards Of Bloomington", a suburb of Fontana, California.) There are others, but all together they make you wonder how much of this is reasearch by the author and how much is taken from other less informed sources.

Summary: Crudity aside, a good documentary
Comment: Yves Lavigne's unrelenting vulgarity takes away from what is otherwise an informative and well researched first-person account of the growth of the Hell's Angels growth from 50's rebels to 60's cause celebre to modern day mafia. Their ability to enforce omerta (the code of silence)among their members, at least in this account, makes them more effective, and more dangerous, than La Cosa Nostra. How much of this admittedly entertaining tale is truth and how much is fantasy? Only Mr. Lavigne and the Hell's Angels know with any certainty.

Summary: Amazing detail
Comment: From the second i opened this amazing exploration of wheels and deals, I was on the edge of my banana seat. Forget tonka trucks and PUCH mopeds - these bikes are what its all about. I was a little nervous at the beginning because of the expletive in the title, but then I found out it was just a way for the angels to identify themselves in this crazy crazy world we live in.
as far as secret keeping and three minus two - i lost track but who cares.
