No!

Last time, it was like

he was gettin' beat up 'cause...

Everybody see he can't fight.

Yeah, he can't.

That's what everybody say.

See, he was runnin' 'cause he

actin' like the helicopter lookin' for him,

so girls can think,

"Ooh, he's so bad. "

You all right?

You know why you all right.

Look like he asleep.

I lost my son.

My oldest son.

From an asthma attack.

Sh*t. I don't know

if he all right or not.

I thought...

So I'm tryin' to figure

out why I ain't storm out the door.

Because you not

dead.

Huh? I said, "'Cause you not dead. "

What you sayin'?

Why you sayin'...

It's not the time!

Stop! Stop!

Uh-uh! Uh-uh! Uh-uh!

You go on! Get out there!

Keep them

the f*** off!

Get off of me!

Get off of me!

Pug, wake up!

I just wanna

get away. You know?

I don't wanna go!

Sunday, early in the mornin',

I look out the window

and just look for that sun.

If I see that sun,

I know it's gonna be a good day.

When I get downstairs and walk in

that backroom and see that bike,

it's just like you

my girlfriend,

like I'm talkin' to her, like,

"Yeah, we gonna tear

the streets up today. "

Once I start that bike

up, it's like a nervous feeling.

My leg starts to shake.

It's just a feelin', like,

"What could go wrong this day?

This... This could be

my last time on the bike. "

Maybe police chasin'.

You maybe get hurt.

I think about everything. I think

about everything in the mornin'.

But once I pull off, all that

feeling just goes out the window.

And it's just me, the world,

the bike and the streets.

I've been bikin' all my life.

So I know kids, like, every

time you see 'em, they know you.

They know

exactly your name and all that.

They'll never forget you, 'cause

I never forgot a person, never.

Still know that guy to this day.

I was young, plain to see.

I was, like, seven or eight years

old, rolling round the block.

Ever since then, I always wanted a bike.

I just had to wait till I get older.

Turned about 14. Got my first

little four-wheeler.

I used to ride around here

and learn how to wheelie.

One time, I heard the pack.

I was in the house. I heard it.

And I knew it was them. I just ran

out back, tryin' to get my bike.

Went. That was my first time

tryin' to find the pack.

I was right behind 'em,

but I never caught up with 'em.

I just had to wait till

I get older.

When I turned 18, that's when I had

the opportunity to ride with 'em.

The first time was so fun.

It was so fun.

It was just, like, the

funnest day of my life.

And then I went home and just fell

asleep, and that day was the best.

And I got... I just couldn't wait

till another Sunday, that's all.

I just couldn't wait. Another

Sunday. I just wanted to ride again.

Come on, slow.

Come on, slow!

Yeah, I ride!

You fightin'.

What's that?

You want a run on the bikey?

Ride on the bikey!

What alley?

The alley.

That one?

There go the bikes.

Here we go.

Lord, see right here.

Oh, man, see right here.

Hey! Hey, man!

Yo, we gonna come out!

I'm gonna come out too!

Hey! Come here!

Wait!

- They're free.

They get on that bike,

they feel powerful.

Whatever's goin' on in

their life, it's all gone.

You can escape...

and ride.

Uh, I been on

this earth for a decade...

and a couple years.

So what that makes me...

I'm a grown-ass man.

Niggas would beef. They

would fight, stab and kill each other.

East and West.

When Sundays came,

it was time to ride.

All of that sh*t was nothin'. We ride

as one Baltimore pack. One f***in' flock.

Yeah, basically, 'cause that

gang stuff is, like, gettin' real high-end.

Even though they against each

other, they still have love for us,

for the whole sport.

When you ride a bike, for some reason,

it seem like it make you neutral.

"K." "K" looking

all crazy riding ahead.

Man's clutch is goin' up.

That be like...

His stomach's

so big, he look pregnant.

I might ride

down with the pack...

for the first time.

But I wasn't tryin' to ride with 'em yet,

'cause I think they gonna leave me on this.

I need a better bike.

They got a gut side to show off.

But I ain't gonna "show"

show off.

I'm gonna just... just pop

my little clutch, yeah.

Just take it up

for a little bit.

And since they are

too dangerous to chase,

Alex DeMetrick reports police

are finding new ways to stop them.

Adopting a strategy of watch,

wait and track with surveillance cameras...

and the department's

Foxtrot helicopters,

riders can literally be followed home, often

without ever noticing they're being watched.

This new system, I can look

right down, put the crosshairs on 'em,

and I can tell 'em quickly

what alley he's in.

Officers will also be

able to use thermal imaging...

and zoom in on suspects

from miles away.

Animal, whenever you

want it.

Whose gonna ride past?

Give each other five.

Any nigga want it,

they can come get it.

Hit me up on Facebook.

However you want it.

12 O'Clock Wheelie Boyz, man.

We out. No, it ain't

that. It ain't that.

We're biker boys. It ain't.

Yo, everybody got the name.

For real. They just call us

the 12 O'Clock Boys.

My mother know.

I know Wheelie Boy.

Yo, the boys.

The boys! The boys,

boys.

2920 Erdman.

The big house that's

sittin' on top of the hill.

Who's your

brother? Which one?

Um, heavyset. Tall.

Yeah.

What's his name?

He died.

He's on the back of my shirt.

Oh, yeah, you... Oh, yeah.

Okay, I remember that.

You all was down

there today, weren't you all? No.

I know everybody. Well,

how you know my big brother?

It was a cookout I was at.

How you know?

How do I know your big brother?

I just know him.

- You just know him? - Yeah, I know

him. 'Cause I'm good like that.

Listen, though. I'm not gonna

put your business out there, okay?

All right?

Which way they went?

Which way they goin'?

They drivin' up to that road.

Up on that road?

I think they're headin' on

straight down.

Tryin' to link back up

with the flock.

It's torture though.

Right.

They did that dumb sh*t. They

tried to hit the block again.

Where the police... main police station...

Like, we was right there where they were.

If he ready, they at Dunbar.

At Dunbar? Yeah.

They get this kick out of ridin'

past the main police headquarters,

right on the edge of the block where the strip

clubs and the main police headquarters is.

They get a kick of goin' down there and

f***in' with them. That's where they went at.

And, uh, the pack got split up.

The bikers come this way?

They came this way, the pack?

Yeah, yeah.

Straight down.

Which way?

I got a flat right there, yo.

Get that sh*t on tape.

Bird on 'em.

That guy is hard.

Ooh, I'm glad.

Where you at?

All right.

Go ahead.

Hey, chill out.

Chill out while there's coppers.

You talkin', I was swallowin'

my guts, not to say nothin'.

You know, I was ready to blank.

They been illegal,

they probably stay illegal,

but chasin' 'em

is not gonna solve the problem.

These resources could be goin'
