How are you passing your time while you are “staying in place” during this National Pandemic? Well, if you’re like most people, you are spending at least some of your time watching TV and trying to figure out which series or movie to watch next.
Now that you have all seen the Tiger King and come to hate that bitch Carol Baskin, or watched all the Grey’s Anatomy Reruns you can handle, maybe its time to make some popcorn and sit down to watch some of the movies that have made our lifestyle what it is today. Okay, well, you know, what most people think being a biker is all about anyway… sshhhh, don’t let them in on our little secret that most big burly bikers are just teddy bears that like to cuddle with their ol’ ladies and don’t really get into THAT much trouble.
Here’s a list of movies that are Motorcycle related… or that at least have motorcycles in them. Some of them are the classics, some of them you’ve probably never heard of and I am mostly sure that some of them are down right cheesey! I can’t wait to set up the projector and screen, light a bonfire and sit around in lawn chairs with a nice cold beverage and watch some of these!!

How to outride the cops and sleep off 12 hrs of not knowing you are drunk
Correction it was “CC and Company “ 1970 movie with Joe Namieth, Anne Margret, and William Smith.
Don’t forget the 1970 movie “CC Rider” with Joe Namieth, Anne Margret, and William Smith as the bad Ass. More motorcycles than you can shake a stick at. One of the reasons that got me into choppers!
