Nobody would be so disrespectful like fighting over top of bikes, that's just American movie bullshit!

There wasn't that much fighting amongst bike gang members in the fifties, they were generally a terrific mob to be with!

Don't get me wrong there were plenty of fights with non bikers! (bodgies, widgies, Teddyboys and the like)

The bikes, jackets, clothes, haircuts and girls are probably the most accurate bits of it, interesting though!

In the fifties bikers were 'Milk Bar Cowboys.'

I use to ride my Tiger 100 over the tussock on the Port Hills.

Was with a crowd one Saterday afternoon going over to Lyttelton before the tunnel was built and one of the guys came off. His jeans were badly ripped so out came the wire cutters snip snip some number 8 fencing wire and they were sown up there on the side of the road.
