Knightriders 1981 Mugs
Description: Knightriders is a 1981 American action drama film about a traveling troupe that jousts on motorcycles. The story follows performers are slowly cracking under the pressure of hick cops, financial troubles and failure to live up to their own ideals. The group's leader, King Billy, is increasingly unable to maintain his warrior's rule while the Black Knight is being tempted away to LA and stardom, as they all begin asking why they are even there in the first place. Knightriders was filmed entirely on location in the Pittsburgh metro area, including Fawn Township and Natrona, during the summer of 1980 and was released on April 10, 1981. Despite the film's somewhat goofy premise on the surface, it was very well received by audiences and critics.
