Default Your favorite motorcycle movies.

Ok so im stuck someplace (no not prison) and cant ride for a few weeks. I was ordering a few dvds and it made wonder what eveyones fav motorcycle movies were........... Im a huge Steve McQueen fan so The Great Escape is one of my favs. Bud Elkins made the jump not McQueen BTW. On Any Sunday, The Wild One, Easy Rider will always in my top picks, and i hate to admit this but Harley Davison and the Marlboro Man is one of my guilty pleasures. So lets hear them even if a few are cheezy.

For a MC experience you won't forget check out the documentaries; "Long Way Around" and "Long Way Down". Both by the same two guys circumnavigating on BMW's. You won't believe some of the sh*t they get in...and out of.

As far as "make believe" movies they are all too damn corny for my taste; esp. the old ones. Then there's that new POS "Wild Hogs" or whatever it was called. So dang stupid and over done. What I want to know is when is someone going to make a serious and cool biker movie?

Check out those docs; you won't be disappointed.

I love the movie with anthony hopkins whos is a Kiwi trying to get to Bonniville salt flats to speed test his old indian. I am not sure what it is called, but it is a good one. Just a dude with a dream, a bike and a purpose before he goes to the upper room.

Yes, yes! "The World's Fastest Indian" was a great movie. Forgot about that one though it wasn't really a "biker" movie and is based on a true story about an Aussie who speed trials his old Indian Motorcycle.

saw the wild hogs for the 1st time the other night on TNT, it was funny, kind reminded of this website at time, Just kidding dont want to get anybody upset. It was ok. Could have sworn Dudley's tat was not on when it should have been, but who reallly cares, it had some funny parts.
