I would just like to share with you all a clip of film i found on 'you tube' from the film 'The Leather Boys'.Tap in 'Ton Up' and have a look at the ton up boys in action from the Ace Cafe.Appart from 3 or 4 actors the rest are all genuine bikers who went to the Ace at the time this film was made.Enjoy.

Ok, I had a link on here to the movie clip on youtube but there was a problem with the embedding. Go to youtube and search for The Leather Boys and you'll find it.

It gave a pretty depressing view of marriage, blue-collar life in London, and alternative lifestyles. Just the same, the bikes and the shots of the Ace were killer...

Yep that was a great film about bikes, I think Mike Baldwin from Coronation Street was in it [sorry USA guys you wont know what Coronation Street is]. I have seen the film a few times and yes there was a bit of botty banging inuendo going on, but hey this was a liberal film for its day and it had bikes in it.
