This brief covers the unique crime group of Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs. Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs
are adult criminal associations composed of bikers living a deviant lifestyle that includes
individual  group  and club criminal behavior. These groups are sometimes called one percenters
due to the American Motorcycle Association statement that ninety-nine percent of motorcyclists
are law abiding citizens. While many may be familiar with the reputation of the Hells' Angels 
many may not realize the wide network of other Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs or the extent of their
involvement in criminal activities. The brief includes a breakdown of the criminal networks and
activities of these groups  which operate similarly to an organized crime group. It also covers
the evolution of motorcycle clubs to motorcycle gangs. It examines the recent trend of
American-based motorcycle gangs into international organized crime activities. This book will
be of interest to researcher studying criminology  particularly organized crime and criminal
networks  as well as international and comparative law and public policy.
