12 O'Clock Boys

12 O'Clock Boys is a 2013 documentary film directed by Lotfy Nathan. The documentary focuses on urban dirt-bike riders in Baltimore, Maryland, and one boy's fascination with the group, dirt bikes, and his desire to join the 12 O'Clock Boys (for doing a high angle wheelie that mimics a clock’s hands at 12 o'clock).[1]
