I am always interested in anything bike. I sparked an interest in what they are like in the real world due to my romance biker book obsession. This book was quite interesting and I learned a lot about the one percenter world that I don't think I would have ever even known if I didnt read it. I would recommend for any one interested in learning some interesting facts about biker clubs.
