My only interaction with the Angels. I was on a Motorcycle run in Nor Cal in the 90's. I was rolling joints on a picnic table at our camp site and an older Angel approached me about buying some weed. I just handed him 5-6 joints and said have a good time No Charge. He shook my hand and I didn't see him again until the following morning when he showed up with 2 giant plates of breakfast for me and my girlfriend. Sometimes it pays to be a nice guy.

As a kid in San Diego maybe nine or ten years old walking back from a little corner store with vinegar to dye Easter eggs a man came behind me and grabbed me by the neck. A Hells Angel walked out of a little bungalow and said you let go of that little girl. To this day thank that Hell's angel. I was young and I ran and I never thanked him for saving me but make no doubt he saved me from I don't know what but I'm sure nothing good

My husband and I went to NYC about 15 years ago. It was September 11 and we were shopping across from where the twin towers were. The area was still under re-construction. We heard the loudest engine noise, and then a steady stream of bikers (around 100 of them) pulled up and stopped. The lead biker held up his hand to prompt the group to rev their engine simultaneously . We spoke to a hotel concierge who told us the bikers come every year to honour those who perished in 9/11. We will always remember this.

There are so many ex military in the biker clubs these days, definitely a rise in actual biker clubs that are all ex military. They get a bum reputation but look at groups such as bikers against bullies and so on. In Scotland we have a ride out called the kilt ride, it raises money for charity, then there is thunder in the glen which started off with Harley riders and that's grown over the years. No doubt you can find both on here. We still have hells angels here but nothing on the size of American clubs

We were eating at restaurant in Myrtle Beach (SC) a few years ago and there was a group of Hell’s Angels in there. On of the guys was a big older feller with a big long white beard and my daughter (4 years old) kept looking and pointing at him saying “daddy, he looks like Santa Claus”. I kept telling her “it’s not nice to stare and point baby” I DID NOT want to piss them off! Well he caught on to her pointing and he told us to come on over. He picked her up and put her on his knee and asked “have you been a good girl this year?” We ended up talking for 15 mins and they were the nicest people I encountered that week. They were super nice and respectful.

The only Hell’s Angels I’ve ever encountered in person were at my local bagel shop. Two of them, each 6’5 or 6’6 tall, were sitting at a table on a very busy Saturday. A small elderly woman placed her order and, having no open tables, stood off to the side. The two HA’s stood up and offered her their table. One even pulled the chair out for her. Wouldn’t want to cross them, but there are definitely worse people in society than HA’s.

If you want to avoid the Federal government, they will send armed men to lock you in a cage, and kill you if you resist. Just ask Randy Weaver’s dead wife and baby, or the 86 people murdered at Waco, including 25 children. Or any Native American tribe.

Such a wonderful life! I could listen to Flash all day! I was born in 1961. During the 1960's, there were no helmut laws and no shoes were required. The exhaust pipe did run a little hot next to the skin. My dad had a beautiful Harley-Davidson and would take my mom every so often to Calaveras County in California for the weekend. At night, my dad would pull over and unroll their sleeping bags. One night, a group of Hells Angels pulled over to get some rest. They invited my mom and dad to sit in a circle with them out in an open field. Back then, there were so many brilliant stars in the night sky. Not to soon after the circle was formed, a joint was lit and passed around for all to share. My mom would laugh every time she told the story as she had never participated in such an activity before! My dad looked like Clint Eastwood and my mom looked just like the late Sharon Tate. My mom and dad said that the Hells Angels were so kind, respectful, protective and hospitable!

I also gained a lot of insight about people being around them. One thing I know for sure is they were more honest with me (and everyone) than nearly anyone I've ever known! No bullshit!

While I recognize that they’re outlaws, any HA that I’ve ever met in person has always been very kind and respectful. A group of 6 or 7 of them stopped at the same gas station I was stopped at with my 9yr old daughter last summer in the middle of nowhere Northern Ontario. I went into the bathroom and told her she could go pick out some road trip snacks. I came out of the bathroom and 4 of them were inside and were chatting with her, 2 of them standing by the door. It was very clear that they were looking out for the pretty little blonde haired, blue eyed young lady who they only saw alone in the gas station when they first walked in. There was no threat, just very polite men who were making sure she stayed safe while her mom did her business. They let us check out first, and then opened the door for us to leave. I’ll tell ya one thing…I’ve walked past groups of men and felt very uncomfortable but standing in that building with a bunch of bikers…l knew my daughter and I couldn’t be in a safer environment than that moment!

But this guy walked across a mountain and into the valley and returned to make sure I didnt make the same mistake of going over there. to tell me what lies beyond. God is a perfect kind of love that highlights your virtues and understands your faults. Hell, in my opinion, is the time you have to stand before him and admit to yourself your imperfection, and how you forgot and strayed from that light while god forgives you. Its in gods perfect path that he himself designed you to forget...Where where you before you where here??? Where where you before you where born???...EXACTLY...99.9999% cannot remember...on purpose.

@@absurd_patience First of all, the Swastika is one of the worlds OLDEST symbols which span a very wide variety of nations and ethnicity’s. Second of all, the SS was not even racist you bafoon. Some of the top leaders in the SS were Jewish, and they highly respected ALL races. A black Olympian at the time has testimony about how the Germans would cheer the loudest for him during the tournament; and when he was invited to meet Hitler afterwards, he was treated with nothing but the upmost respect, and the Germans would all stop him in the street to congratulate him. Meanwhile, he said he had the complete opposite experience back in America. EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING you think you know about WW2 is wartime propaganda spread by Hollywood; which is ran by predominately who?? Exactly.. Remember; the victors write the history books..

I was invited to a gathering at the local clubhouse later that evening and again was welcomed and treated kindly.

Never was a clubber, but I understand Brotherhood and Fraternity. Got nailed in '87 by a left turning cager on my way to work, with a pregnant wife and not much in the bank, was down almost a year and got right back on. I found out who my real friends were, people I had met while riding were there for me and my family. That is the tie that binds. Motorcycles are not just a Hobby, they are a Lifestyle and these men are a true testament to that.

It says a lot about our culture today, when a guy who has been a member of the Hells Angels, for decades, says that he liked the 1950s, "when your kids could walk to school without worrying about getting robbed, mugged or murdered. And you could leave your door unlocked in front of your house." I completely agree with him, and would say it was the same in the 1960s as well. Shows that a Hells Angels has the same concerns as anyone else and see the bad changes in culture, like everyone else. Might surprise a lot of people.

My Uncle was a member of the Tacoma, WA chapter. He got into selling parts and fixing bikes and they liked him for that. Eventually he became a member. Got into building bikes and trikes with automobile engines. Still have a few pics of him and the trikes he custom built. Miss him and the stories that died with him. I bet he had some good ones too. Good interview.

I remember him from History of Choppers. Much younger then. Good to see he's still flying the colours.
