Hells Angels is a pretty kickass book. When I moved to Oakland I was riding my bike down the street and lo and behold I went right by the Hells Angels hangout that Thompson writes about in his book. It was pretty cool.

I tried to replicate the cool feeling of "I read about this place in a book" by going to Strawberry Canyon in Berkeley. This is referenced in Way of the Peaceful Warrior. Didn't have the same effect as riding by the Hells Angels hangout. I don't think I'm peaceful enough.
