1. Easy Rider
2. Born to Ride
3. Wild One
4. Wild Angels
I haven't seen the "Indian" movie yet, but I hear it is real good. There was a "biker" movie made back in
the early '50s around the time of the Wild One. It was about motor cops and the training they did to be come motor cops. I think it is called "Code Blue" or maybe "code 2" I'm not sure. I saw it on TV some time in the '60s and never again. It was a killer flick. Back then to become a motorman you really had
to know how to ride a scooter. Hardtail Pans cross country, up hills down hills, you name it they had to do it. I beleive TCM (Turner Classic Movies) has the rights to it but will notrun it for some reason. I think Ralph Meeker was the star. Anybody remember him? AMF

Didn't Marlon Brando ride a Triumph in The Wild Ones?
Not sure it seems I remember that.

Triumph 6T Thunderbird with custom sprung seat and pillion pad in
The Wild One. In fact, the majority of the motorcycles seen in that
movie, first released in December 1953, are Britbikes.

Hmmm.. well, folks.. I give a big thumbs up to Harley Davidson and the Marlboro man and to the Worlds Fastest Indian (got both this week).. I just downloaded Electra Glide in Blue.. maybe I had it built up to much.. as I didn't like it at all.... just personal preference I guess..
So.. netting for me.. I give 2 thumbs up to the following:
- Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man
- Beyond the Law
- The Wild One
- The Worlds Fastest Indian
- Wild Hogs
2 thumbs down
- Electra Glide in Blue
Still have several I want to watch.. hoping to get Stone Cold downloaded (have to find a site that has it) .. also, want to see Mad Max..

Electra Glide in Blue I'm a Robert Blake fan and I thought he was excellent in this movie. Plus the best footage of classic FLH's I've ever seen in any movie.

yeah I always think of "Mask" - I haven't seen it in a long time - but it's cool that his goal in life was to ride a Harley through Europe - I think he wanted a red sportster. Need to see it again and check out the bikes- I saw Wild Hogs, but you've got to take it for what it's worth - you could tell Travolta has ridden before and that Tim Allen had probably never been on a bike before that movie - he looked scared on the bike. Martin Lawerence is always funny!
Some good flicks listed - I'll have to check some of them out!
