W. T. “RoadBlock” Harrell’s New Book “The Probate” is now available

An Authentic Look at 1970s Biker Clubs
By Someone Who Actually “Lived It.”

W. T. “RoadBlock” Harrell’s New Book “The Probate” is now available.

Fans of current fiction biker books know one troubling thing: The stories are often written by someone who wasn’t even born during the 1970s heyday of the old biker clubs. Even worse, nonfiction books are written by club snitches or federal undercover agents who betrayed the clubs. None of these credentials exactly endear the authors to the reader, or give the books much credibility.

W. T. Harrell, known as RoadBlock 1%er during his forty years with one of the “Big Four” 1%er clubs, decided it was time for today’s readers to see what it was really like to be in a club back in the early 70s.

His new fiction series chronicles war veteran Joe Wilson's rise to power among the notorious Regents Motorcycle Club in the era of sex, drugs and rock and roll. RoadBlock's memories, preserved during a thirty-year prison stint, provide rare authentic adventures for readers. “The Probate” takes the reader to a place few have experienced, before cell phones, computers and eight-lane highways.

From the Book Jacket for “The Probate” by W.T. RoadBlock Harrell–

Flash Back to 1970: From New Orleans to Jacksonville to Atlanta, a menagerie of bikers, hippies, rednecks and Cajuns do business together…when they’re not trying to eliminate the competition.

Enter adrenaline junkie Joe Wilson, a stock car driver very adept at outrunning the horrific war memories that pursue him.

When bikers set up shop in his hometown, he pays them a visit to make sure they don’t pose a threat to his close-knit, working-class neighborhood. Instead, he discovers he has much in common with the volatile men. Fresh from Vietnam with specialized skills and demons of their own, they live by a harsh code, protecting their reputation, patch and brotherhood at all costs.

After a party that goes terribly wrong, Joe takes a dark vengeful path. His only ally is an exotic dancer who packs tarot cards along with her Luger Krieghoff. But she belongs to someone else, a man who could become Joe’s best friend--or worst enemy.

As an expendable probate, he has to prove he’s worthy to ride with the Regents MC. Trouble follows Joe wherever he goes, and even among the hardcore bikers, he quickly establishes a reputation as “hard to kill.” But those old war ghosts do not want to get left behind, and threaten Joe’s existence more than any living rival….
