Documentary don Sean Dunne spent some time in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina to film this engrossing short about unseen Americana—and similar to his American Juggalo, it takes a look at a subculture that’s arisen around a common interest: this time it’s riding motorbikes – Black Bike Week – Dunne gives us an entertaining glimpse into this underground community.

The first Black Bike Week was back in 1980 and since then the annual meet up sees black bikers—of all ages and both sexes—from across America to come together and party on and ride bikes.

Starting over thirty years ago in 1980, this yearly congregation unites black bikers from all over the US, as they spend the weekend riding and partying hard.

“A whole lot of bikes, a whole lot fun,”

Around half a million bikers and party people gather to make the most of the ‘no-helmet’ law and let loose.

Dunne spoke with several revelers, who all echoed similar sentiments of Black Bike Week as a place to unwind and not some gathering of folks searching for trouble.

“We all wear different colors, we’re all from different states [and] different areas of the county, but when it comes to this, we all got a conversation piece. We all got a story to tell.”

Biker clubs from across the country trek to the east coast beach town to mix and party with bikers near and far.

They flaunt flashy gear, dance and kick back for a week filled with motorcycles and no responsibilities.

An intriguing look into an exciting motorcycle sub-culture celebrated annually in full in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina over Memorial Day Weekend.

Dunne once again turns his gaze to an enthusiastic subculture of American society and provides another eye-opening and entertaining insight into a group of devotees.
