By the early 1900s bicycle design and manufacturing had reached a point where aerodynamics were a major factor in bicycle racing. It all started with these two-seater bicycles equipped with air-cooled French DeDion-Buton single-cylinder internal combustion engines to propel the bikes at regulated speeds just ahead of the racers. Pacers were complicated to operate and required two people to race: the front rider was a pilot who steered the vehicle, and the rear rider was an engineer who constantly adjusted the fuel flow to the primitive carburetor to maintain a constant speed. Unfortunately these engines were very unreliable and often broke down because the fuel delivery of the French carburettors was very unstable. One answer to the problems came from a small self-taught bicycle machinist and designer/maker named Oscar Hedstrom. Hedstrom began modifying single-cylinder engines and carburetors for bicycles and began making them more and more reliable. Hendee began working with Hedstrom and became a huge success in the New England area. This collaboration soon leads to a professional motorcycle sales business. With that said he takes me to the motorcycle clubs. Already in 1901 bicycles were mass-produced and sold to the general public. Two years later, in 1903, Harley Davidson was founded and in the wake of the spread of the American motorcycle, the formation of motorcycle clubs and organizations. That same year some of the first known clubs, the New York Motorcycle Club, joined with the Alpha Motorcycle Club of Brooklyn to form the Federation of American Motorcycles (FAM). Article one, section two of the FAM bylaws reads: “[The Federation's] purpose shall be to encourage the United States… at the middle of the paper… there is nothing left. These other clubs however were growing and becoming sudden. Veterans from Southeast Asia reported information about illegal drugs and of course these were given to motorcycle gangs because they travel, who better to transport. This led to the drug epidemic of the 1960s. The “One Percenters” set out and claimed that the AMA needed to get back into action and began practicing in California; they also made it known more intensely than before that the biker gangs were separate and in a sense did not like each other. In 1964, at a bike rally, two men were accused of rape but released because the evidence didn't help the reputation the bikers were building. Officials began to get frustrated and make statements such as “thuggery activity” and “a clear and present danger to local, state and, ultimately, international voters.” These gangs continued to get worse.
