Not too many people know that the original Easy Rider choppers were built by a black man. Ben Hardy built both bikes out of his L.A. shop. See The Vintagent blog for an excellent write up on the man. He got very little, if any credit for his part in the greatest biker movie ever made (when I say greatest I mean as far as its impact on society at that time). What if Captain America would have been played by a black man ?
