Laconia 2010: Biker Chicz TV Trailer

The East Coast Biker Chicks (ECBC) filmed at Laconia Motorcycle Week and will continue to film in New England this summer. More than 130 women riders from Maine to Vermont, and the greater Boston area belong to ECBC, said club founder Lucky Belcamino. The 1st episode was shot in Boston and on the road to the 2010 Laconia Motorcycle Rally.

Biker Chicz TV will debut worldwide in the fall of 2010. Produced by Blockhead City Entertainment and created by biker author Edward Winterhalder, "Biker Chicz" is a docu-reality TV series featuring the colorful, entertaining and engaging women who are members of an all-female motorcycle club known as the "East Coast Biker Chicks" (ECBC).

Their 47 second trailer was shot in Metro Boston and on the road to Laconia.

Laconia is known as "The Riding Rally" because everyone rides, every day of the rally, and there are so many wide, curvy mountain roadways.

There are more registered motorcycles per capita in New Hampshire than any other state in the USA and nearby, Loudon is the home of motorcycle racing. There was a lot going on at the 87th Annual Laconia -- the oldest motorcycle rally in the country.

Biker Chicz TV will focus on the positive aspects of the Harley-Davidson biker culture and the everyday lives of the East Coast Biker Chicks, based in Metro Boston. The empowered women riders are from all walks of life: a social worker, a scientist, a stock broker, a mortgage broker, a chiropractor and others who are in many ways average everyday typical American women. The members of the club are bound together by their independence, love of motorcycles and the open road, and the camaraderie and fellowship which the ECBC provides.

In the series, we will see the women at home with their families, at work with their colleagues and socializing at motorcycle events, charity functions and club meetings. They will also be featured on various motorcycle rides around New England and in the communities in which they live.

Biker Chicz TV at Laconia 2010

IT'S OFFICIAL - The East Coast Biker Chicks will begin filming their TV reality series on Saturday, June 19th at Laconia Bike Week.

The "hard riding, easy living, fun loving, charity giving" East Coast Biker Chicks motorcycle club was founded by Lucky Belcamino, a professional poker player and culinary chef in Boston. 




FILMING SCHEDULED TO START FOR NEW REALITY TV SERIES FEATURING BOSTON’S EAST COAST BIKER CHICKS MOTORCYCLE CLUB

BOSTON, MA - 6/2/10 – Eight members of a Boston area all female motorcycle club called the East Coast Biker Chicks, will soon be featured in a new television series. Filming for the Biker Chicz docu-reality series is scheduled to start on June 19th during the annual Laconia Bike Week in Laconia NH, and continue in eastern Massachusetts throughout the summer.

Biker Chicz will focus on the positive aspects of the Harley-Davidson biker lifestyle and is being produced by an Oklahoma production company, Blockhead City Entertainment. “Our intention is to produce a happy, feel good television series that will be enjoyable to watch, and realistically capture the true nature of bikers, their spirit and the Harley lifestyle – this series will be just the opposite of what you see in shows like Sons of Anarchy and Gangland,” said Executive Producer Edward Winterhalder.

Winterhalder, a biker personality, author and the creator of the Biker Chicz TV series, has been riding Harleys since 1974. One of the world’s leading authorities on bikers, motorcycle clubs and the Harley-Davidson biker lifestyle; his books about the biker lifestyle are published in multiple languages and sold all over the world. “Because I have lived the biker lifestyle myself for more than thirty-five years, I feel confident that I can accurately capture for TV what really goes on in the life of a biker on a day-to-day basis,” he said.

“Thank God someone is finally going to show the world that bikers are ordinary people from all walks of life; regular people that have families and jobs, who enjoy riding Harleys in their spare time and giving back to the communities in which they live when they can,” said Lucky Belcamino.

Annie Concemi, recently profiled on TLC's "What Not To Wear," rides a Harley and will also be featured in the Biker Chicz TV series. "Everyone I know is sick and tired of all of the negative television these days, where everyone argues and fights for sixty minutes," said Annie. "Biker Chicz will be a breath of fresh air."
