Description
They started off as bicycles with motors, but they became their own form of transportation. The turn of the century saw America start to manufacture its own motorcycles, and police departments started using them in 1911. Doug Schneider will cover the role that motorcycles have played in American life – from transportation to cinema to folklore to self-expression to music to a sense of menace. Doug will also discuss motorcycle companies trying to reach new demographics, such as women.
