The Hells Angels Motor­cy­cle Club (HAMC) is a world­wide “one-percenter” motor­cy­cle gang and orga­nized crime syn­di­cate whose mem­bers typ­i­cally ride Harley-Davidson motor­cy­cles. In the United States and Canada, the Hells Angels are incor­po­rated as the Hells Angels Motor­cy­cle Cor­po­ra­tion.

Both the Fed­eral Bureau of Inves­ti­ga­tion and the Crim­i­nal Intel­li­gence Ser­vice Canada clas­sify the Angels as one of the “big four” out­law motor­cy­cle clubs, con­tend­ing that mem­bers carry out wide­spread vio­lence, drug deal­ing, traf­fick­ing in stolen goods, and extor­tion. Mem­bers of the orga­ni­za­tion itself assert that this is a mis­char­ac­ter­i­za­tion, and state that they are a group of motor­cy­cle enthu­si­asts who orga­nize social events such as group road trips, fundrais­ers, par­ties, and motor­cy­cle rallies.
