The inspiration behind the new film with Austin Butler, Jodie Comer, Tom Hardy, Michael Shannon, and Mike Faist

First published in 1968, and now back in print for the first time in ten years,Ā The BikeridersĀ explores firsthand the stories and personalities of the Chicago Outlaws Motorcycle Club. This journal-size volume features original black-and-white photographs and transcribed interviews by Lyon, made from 1963 to 1967, when he was a member of the Outlaws gang. Authentic, personal and uncompromising, Lyon's depiction of individuals on the outskirts of society offers a gritty yet humane perspective that subverts more commercialized treatments of Americana.

Thompson, Joan Didion and Tom Wolfe, Lyon's photography is saturation reporting at its finest.Ā The BikeridersĀ is a touchstone publication of 1960s counterculture, crucially defining the vision of the outlaw biker as found inĀ Easy RiderĀ and countless other movies and photobooks.
