They called him “Cameraman.” Welcomed into The Chosen Few outlaw motorcycle club in 1971, California born photographer, Elliot Gold, followed the biker club as a friend and observer.
Founded by Lionel Ricks, the group originated in Los Angeles and spread across the United States throughout the 70’s. As the first racially integrated outlaw motorcycle club, their legacy was rooted in their ability to exist and grow despite the prevailing prejudices of the day. United under the common bond of brotherhood, The Chosen Few deconstructed social barriers and created a culture of their own.
Accompanying the gang for two years, Gold photographed candid moments amongst the biker club. Following them on runs, outings and other social events, he captured an array of iconic images that revealed the lifestyle and character of The Chosen Few Motorcycle Club.
