About
Compiled by filmmaker Gabriel Griffin in 2010 from the archives of the Venice and South Bay chapters of the notorious "Heathens MF" motorcycle gang, "Asphalt Gods" documents "the end of the golden age of outlaw motorcycling" in Southern California. These vintage color images taken by members, girlfriends, wives, and friends show The Heathens at work and "play" in the sixties and seventies in an informality previously seen by only a privileged few. It was issued as a fundraiser to complete Griffin's documentary film in progress and features detailed captions as well as reminiscences by former chapter presidents "Heathen Rick" and Jerry Thorpe.
