Motorcycle Gang
A reckless young rider is caught between a violent ex-con, an impulsive thrill-seeker, and the organized races that may be his only chance to leave street trouble behind. A troublemaker returns to town only to find his old tearaway pals have joined a supervised motorcycle club. Friction erupts between him and the new leader about this goody-goody setup, and about the charms of gang moll Terry. An outlaw biker returns home after a prison stint and tries to corrupt the new straight gang leader by challenging him to an illegal street race.
