Book Review – ‘Hell’s Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga’ by Hunter S. Thompson

Hunter S. Thompson’s Hell’s Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga (the book that gives this blog its name) rides into town like a rumbling, oil-streaked Harley, kicking up dust and leaving you staring down the road after it, half-wondering what just happened. Thompson, the man who practically invented “gonzo journalism,” dives headlong into the chaos of California’s most notorious motorcycle club—the Hell’s Angels—like a daredevil at full throttle. What emerges is less of a documentary and more of a high-octane, first-person blitz through America’s shadowy underworld of beer, blood, and black leather.

What Motorcycles Are in ‘Wild Hogs’?

Ah, Wild Hogs. A 2007 buddy comedy about four middle-aged men swapping suburban ennui for the open road. It’s a film where midlife crisis meets the throttle, and if you’ve ever seen it, you’ll know the motorcycles are more than just set pieces—they’re iron steeds symbolizing a deep yearning for freedom and rebellion. But the question you asked—what motorcycle is in Wild Hogs?—is one worth chewing on, because the answer is more than a simple roll call of chrome and engines. It’s about how each bike mirrors the man riding it.

What are the Motorcycles in Hell Ride?

Ah, Hell Ride — the 2008 Quentin Tarantino-produced, Dennis Hopper-infused biker flick that roars across the screen like a whiskey-soaked fever dream. It’s a cinematic ode to the old-school outlaw biker movies of the ’60s and ’70s, cranking up the throttle on grit, guns, and the gnarly, roaring iron horses beneath those rebel souls. And if you’ve ever watched Hell Ride and asked yourself, “What motorcycle is that?” you’re not alone. The bikes in Hell Ride are as much a part of the story as the men who ride them.

What Motorcycle is in the Movie ‘Ghost Rider’?

You’ve got to hand it to Hollywood. They know how to take a perfectly good motorcycle and turn it into something straight out of a comic book fever dream. In the 2007 film Ghost Rider, based on the Marvel comic, the motorcycle is no ordinary machine. It’s a fiery, chain-wrapped steed of vengeance, a character in its own right, and a rolling symbol of badassery on two wheels. But the burning question (pun intended) for gearheads is simple: What motorcycle was used to transform Johnny Blaze, played by Nicolas Cage, into the Hell-bound Ghost Rider?

What Motorcycle Is in Terminator 2: Judgement Day?

Ah, Terminator 2: Judgment Day—James Cameron’s magnum opus of chrome, leather, and firepower. But amidst the time-traveling cyborgs and sky-splitting action scenes, there’s a machine that steals the spotlight, just for a moment. You know the one: that steel beast Arnold Schwarzenegger’s T-800 rides through the streets of Los Angeles like it was forged for the sole purpose of chasing destiny. The motorcycle, ladies and gentlemen, is none other than the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy—and what a choice it was.

What Motorcycles are in Easy Rider?

There’s a special place in America’s heart for Easy Rider. It’s the movie that gave us more than just a story—it gave us a legend, two dreamers riding their hogs into the wide open spaces of a country in flux.

Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper, cruising down long stretches of highway, their machines cutting through the American landscape like a knife through butter. The motorcycles they rode weren’t just props; they were symbols. And when it comes to Easy Rider, these two-wheelers have their own mythology.
