Collected Columns and Essays on Motorcycling.
A delightful compilation of over 40 articles and essays on all things motorcycle by Ron Davis, writer, columnist, and associate editor for BMW Owners News, the largest
magazine for BMW motorcycle owners on the planet.

“A very special collection of motorcycle life experiences and
observations. There’s a sweet cadence between these covers
you can feel. Each of the stories sparkles like Wisconsin
sunshine on a warm summer afternoon and you’ll find
yourself reading one after another, and another . . . and then another, sort of like a literary version of the vibrational “sweet spot” a well-tuned bike delivers as it thrums along
a smooth two lane country road, happily taking you across mile after wonderful mile. When each of the stories was first published in magazines they all were widely appreciated but (unknown to anyone at the time) something was missing. Those discrete ingredients have all come together
here in a delicious, perfect and honest book about a well-lived
motorcycle life.”

—Andy Goldfine, founder of Aerostich

“International rider and author Ron Davis writes about
life and motorcycles, and why they are sometimes the same.”

—Jack Riepe, author of:
Conversations With A Motorcycle, Motorcycles Speak
Louder Than Words, and The Motorcycle Rider’s Diet
