The Hell's Angels Motorcycle Corporation

The Hell's Angels Motorcycle Corporation, commonly known as the Hell's Angels, is an international motorcycle club founded in 1948 in California. It is best known for its large, tightly-knit community of motorcycle enthusiasts who share a passion for riding. While some members participate in charitable activities and community events, the organization has also been associated with organized crime, illegal activities, and a reputation for violence, which has led to scrutiny by law enforcement. Despite this, the club officially presents itself as a brotherhood focused on camaraderie, riding, and mutual support among motorcycle enthusiasts.
