If you were a fan of crime dramas on television in the early 2010s, “Sons of Anarchy” on FX was potentially on your list of favorites. The show depicted the daily lives of the men who made up the outlaw Motorcycle club named in the title, but does that mean the activities they participated in were true to life?
The characters in the show dealt drugs, owned illegal guns, drove recklessly on the highway with their motorcycles, and had a strict code of conduct within their organization. This made audiences wonder whether real-life motorcycle clubs do similar things, and we’re here to discuss some of the truths and lies about motorcycle culture depicted in the series.
Do motorcycle clubs get motorcycle insurance for their bikes? Do motorcycle clubs always participate in illegal activities and commit crimes, or do they just ride with one another to have a good time? And what types of motorcycles do club members ride? We’ll also talk about some of the other ways the series tried to show audiences about motorcycle culture.
