The Hells Angels are a famous biker organization that has recently enjoyed a rather sad reputation. However, this was not always the case. In the heyday of such groups in the USA — in 1965 — the Hells Angels were one of the most respected and revered biker teams. Billy Ray's photos prove that even Hell's Angels can be... not so scary.
