DESCRIPTION

Hit the road with the hell-raising bikers who are born to be wild!

Are they simply a brotherhood of bikers, from whom the public has nothing to fear, apart from the occasional bad apple? Or are they billion dollar crime organisations, involved in drugs, gun-running and murder? Or does the truth lie somewhere in between?

The leather-jacketed, long-haired biker on the open road is a modern American icon. A symbol of freedom, and of rebellion, the image was immortalised and romanticised, in iconic movies like 'The Wild One' and 'Easy Rider'. But there has always been a dark side to this love affair.

Outlaw Bikers goes inside America's biker gangs to separate myth from reality and to reveal where they have come from, how they operate and just what they have done.

Since Sonny Barger took over the unofficial leadership of The Hells Angels, expansion has been the number one priority. Barger wants to unite all outlaw motorcycle gangs around the world under one banner: The Hells Angels. They are to be a global crime machine. In the 1990s Barger’s global ambition leads to the Great Nordic Biker War: a vicious battle between The Hells Angels and the Bandidos for control of the Scandinavian drug trade. For several years these two gangs were locked in a fight to the death. Anti-tank missiles, grenades and rocket-launchers were some of the weapons used to rip up the streets of Copenhagen, Oslo and Helsinki. In their desperate search for a solution local authorities turn to Biker Expert JP Levesque of Quebec. But, was it enough to stop the Bikers before they became all-powerful? Find out in Angels Go Global.

Road to Hell goes back to Quebec in the 1990s. Two vicious Bike Gangs, The Rock Machine and The Hells Angels, are locked in a brutal war. Bombings, fires and murders are occurring on a regular basis. One man is responsible -- the leader of the Hells Angels in Quebec, Mom Boucher. Police are powerless to stop the violence, until they get a break…an insider willing to betray the Angels. But, the insider is a life-long criminal and a rising star with The Hells Angels. To bring down Boucher and the Angels Police will have to do a deal with the devil…

It’s 1997 and Mom Boucher owns Montreal. Boucher contends he is bigger than the law and he’s out to prove it. He draws up a hit-list of authority figures. The first to die will be Prison Guards. With the murders executed Boucher has created a new level of terror…the city lives in fear. Police have one chance to bring down Boucher, they must re-recruit an inside informant Dany Kane.
