Gypsy joker to a Hells Angel

Cross, Phil, 1942-2013
Books, Manuscripts
In the early 1960s, a young Navy veteran, motorcyclist, amateur photographer, and rebel named Phil Cross joined a motorcycle club called the Hells Angels. Discovering it to be a bogus chapter, Cross spent the next decade traversing the outer edges of extreme motorcycle clubs before finding the notorious Gypsy Jokers. He started a San Jose chapter of the Jokers and embarked on the most action-packed years of his life. Cross spent this time in and out of prison, fighting bikers and the police and paying regular visits to the emergency room. This is Cross's own story of the hard road ridden by a true one percenter - from Joker to Angel.
