One Percenter: The Legend of the Outlaw Biker

There comes a time in every mans life where he has to decide whether to conform or break out. Ninety-nine percent of us choose to accept the constraints imposed by society. The rest become outlaws. And for this one percent — those who set their own standards, follow their own values, pursue their own esthetic — the outlaw motorcyclist community offers sanctuary.

Motorcyclists have always been outlaws to some extent, just by choosing such a dangerous and flamboyant sport. But the one percenters live the outlaw life 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

One Percenter: The Legend of The Outlaw Bikers tells the story of this rebellion without a cause — other than freedom and living to the extreme. From the earliest days of the subculture — when World War II veterans began forming early motorcycle clubs — to modern times; this is the real-life account of the wild ones, who one-by-one made their own world.
