Original Pride: The Satyrs Motorcycle Club

A gay motorcycle club operating continuously since the 50s.

I didn’t plan on watching this documentary that popped up in my suggestions, but I found the whole thing so fascinating and kind of hot (seriously, some of these men were incredible back in the day and one in particular isn’t shy about sharing what he got up to!). It’s certainly a piece of history I never knew, or frankly even thought about.

Do we have any Satyrs here at Datalounge?

OP, Datalounge is mostly frequented by mincing prisspots who shriek with horror at the thought of dirty, scruffy men in leather riding motorcycles and having wild sex afterwards.

I’m not a Satyr, but I’m a gay motorcyclist and I have several friends who attend their yearly campout / orgy at Badger Flat. One of these years I might go - sounds like a hoot.

Thank you, OP. That was delightful to watch.

R1 - you can't say 'sounds like a hoot' and then call everyone else mincing prisspots.

Pot, meet kettle.

R3, the reason I talk like an eldergay is because I *am* an eldergay.

So stop sassing your elders, boy.

"Larry Reams" sounds like a porn name

Thanks OP. I've just requested the program from my IPTV provider here in the UK.

Is this currently on the PBS?

Watched this last night. Their mascot is Kate Smith. I think it shows more about Californians than gay men. Every straight old surfer I know looks and sounds like an original Satyr.

But where are the trans in that video? They purposefully whitewashed them out of the documentary!
