As a new rider, I appreciated reading other's reasons for riding. The book is not meant to be a literary classic, but a reflection on the diversity of people who ride motorcycles. I'm genuinely interested in other riders' stories.
Also, as a photographer, I really appreciate it's documentary-style photos.
I have the book displayed (open)on my shelves as art.

I've picked stuff outta my nose after a long ride which contained more character and advice than this claptrap.
1 star because "No Stars" was not an option ...

This is the kind of book that makes my blood boil.
1. If bikers are so intent on expressing their individuality, why do they ride around in a herd at thity miles-per-hour wearing identical "baaad" outfits?
2. Loud pipes don't save lives, they create even more anti-motorcycling sentiment with the general public. Loud pipes will LOSE bikers' rights.
3. Nam is over, dudes. Have a little self-respect and stop peddling your trauma. Grow up.
4. What the hell is that typeface all about? Oh, I remember... individuality, again. Right.
I'm a motorcyclist. Not a biker. I ride alone, and I like it; I like the skill, the grace and the challenge. I'm well aware that I could be killed or maimed at any given time while riding. But that doesn't qualify me to write this kind of pseudo-philosophical claptrap.
Save your money. Buy a copy of... ANYTHING else.

After reading this book, and the reviews found here, I can't help but believe that all the positive reviews come from:
1. Rich Urban Harley Riders
2. Friends of the author
3. Both
This is pretty light weight stuff that has very little to do with riding a motorcycle. But then again...there aren't a lot of motorcyclists. There are a lot of people who own motorcycles. Before you order it from Amazon.com pick the book up at your local bookstore. Glance through it. Maybe you'll like it. Maybe you think $25,000 is a reasonable price for a Harley.
