20 years€ worth of Mark Gardiner's motorcycle journalism, minus the crap.
Includes the rants €˜Throwing Them in the Deep End€ and €˜Who Would Jesus Kill?€ that were banned in Backmarker, and the inspiring feature stories including €˜Searching for Spadino€, and €˜The Naked Frenchman€. (Technically, he wasn€t naked; he was wearing Y-fronts, but €˜The Frenchman in Y-fronts€ sucks as a title.)
If you love motorcycles, every now and then someone€s bound to challenge you over your hobby. Their skepticism always comes down to this question: €œWhat€s so great about motorcycles?€Â
Every story in this book is an answer to that question. What€s great about motorcycles? Motorcyclists. The people who ride them, make them, and love them. People like you.
Mark Gardiner is the author of Riding Man and The Bathroom Book of Motorcycle Trivia. His column €˜Classic America€ is published in Classic Bike. His Backmarker blog appears twice per month on the web site Motorcycle-USA.com.
