Download or read book Riding Man written by Mark Gardiner and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 100 years, the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy races have been the world's most dangerous organized sporting event. As one of thirty thousand fans who attended the annual spectacle, Mark Gardiner harbored no illusions about his own skill or bravery. He was, however, an avid motorcyclist for whom the race represented a boyhood dream. He went home, quit his job, sold everything he owned, and returned to the Island to race there himself. Riding Man is the account of an Everyman, struggling to qualify for -- and survive -- the TT races. If you're a dreamer, the lesson in this book is that the pursuit of any worthwhile goal involves risks, rewards and, almost inevitably some regrets. If you're not a dreamer, the lesson is more important: the deepest regrets are always over risks not taken.

This book was released on 2011-10-03 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Pierson is an even better writer than she is a rider.”—Boston Globe “World’s Toughest Motorcycle Riders”—long-distance motorcycling is not a pastime but an obsession. In this candid, eloquent, sharply observed book, Melissa Holbrook Pierson introduces us to this strange endeavor and the men and women who live to ride impossibly long distances, eating up road, almost without cease. And who find it nothing but fun. Perhaps the most determined of them is John Ryan, a magnetic, enigmatic man who loves nothing better than breaking records of amazing distance—at no small risk to himself and his health. But why? Pierson, who rediscovered the joys of motorcycling in the midst of a personal crisis, puts on her helmet and joins Ryan in his element in order to understand his singular desire and discipline, his passion and his obsession. The Man Who Would Stop at Nothing offers an intimate glimpse of an unusually independent yet supportive community as well as a revealing, unforgettable portrait of its most daring member. In electric, pitch-perfect prose, Pierson gives us rare insights into not only a subculture but also the deeply human craving for something more that drives it.

Download or read book Riding 500cc Two Strokes to Canada in 1972 and Other Motorcycle Adventures written by Jim Balding and published by Rogue Phoenix Press. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our 1972 motorcycle ride took us on a four-thousand-mile trip from Arizona to Canada and back. Some nights we camped out along the highway; other nights we found a motel. Some days the rain was fierce and debilitating… but every day was fun and filled with great experiences and amazing landscapes. Each of us rode a 500cc two-stroke motorcycle on the journey. We had no cell phones, roadside assistance coverage, custom ear plugs, or sound systems. The attractions of the open road, Canada, and Yellowstone Park were very powerful. None of us worried about breaking down or the costs of the trip. We were filled with youthful confidence in ourselves and our machines. The three of us had places to go and places to see. And we made it!
Download or read book The Old Man and the Harley written by John J. Newkirk and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2008-09-02 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ride with a father and his son on an amazing journey through America's past. In the summer of 1939, with the nation balanced between the Great Depression and the gathering winds of war, young Jack Newkirk set off on a rickety Harley to see both the New York and San Francisco World's Fairs. He had no way of knowing it was to e the autumn of his youth, and that his entire generation would soon be thrust into the most devastating conflict in history. Seven decades later, author John J. Newkirk retraces this epic ride with his father, Jack, in a silent hope the old soldier will still be proud of the America he fought for. Each mile brings discovery as the author learns of his namesake, the heroic Squadron Leader of the legendar Flying Tigers, and of his father's life on the road and in the jungles of the South Pacific during World War II. The result is quintessential Americana, a sweeping portrait of the grit, guts, ingenuity, and sacrifice that defined a nation, and a timely lesson from the Greatest Generation on how we can overcome our most pressing challenges and reclaim the American Dream.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year was 1904, the date was December 6th, the place, Chicago, Illinois. At this time in history, the first recorded motor cycle package delivery driver in the city of Chicago, left his place of employment in freezing weather conditions, protected only by his coat and hat and drove off into history. Riding a motor cycle equipped with a delivery sidecar, he would travel 29 miles over roads made rough by the hoofs of countless horses, and ride 29 miles that day alone, making three trips, and delivering 132 packages to customers over the next nearly four and one half hours. Through the pages of this book I looked into history of the men behind this event; William R. Manierre, founder of the Fowler-Manson-Sherman Cycle Mfg. Co., THE MACHINE, Charles A. Stevens, founder of the Chas. A. Stevens & Bros., THE MERCHANT, and Peter M. Hansen, my grandfather, THE MAN. With no more to go on than a small four page advertising booklet published by the Fowler-Manson-Sherman Motor Cycle Mfg. Co., advertising the advantages of their newly developed sidecar, and handed down through the family from grandfather (THE MAN), to son and to grandson, I have strived to fill in the numerous blanks of history surrounding this event by giving credit to the three men involved.

Download or read book The Motorcycle Industry in New York State Second Edition written by Geoffrey N. Stein and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2023-05-01 with total page 855 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Motorcycle Industry in New York State is the first book to focus on the over 120-year history of motorcycle construction in the Empire State. Beginning with experimental motorized bicycles in the 1890s, New York's motorcycle industry experienced its golden years for innovation and production in the 1900s and 1910s. From that promising start, the state's motorcycle industry declined, when the public adopted automobiles for everyday transportation. However, since the late twentieth century, the rise of custom, one-of-a-kind motorcycles has brought a new focus toward the industry. Also, a new effort to reach mass production comes in the form of e-motorcycles and e-bicycles that are being designed in New York. The first edition, published in 2001, was the product of nine years of research by New York State Museum (NYSM) curator Geoffrey N. Stein. This second edition has been revised and updated by NYSM Senior Historian and Curator Brad L. Utter. For anyone who loves motorcycles or for those enthusiasts/collectors that wish to know more about these unique makers and the bikes that they created, The Motorcycle Industry in New York State is the ideal companion.
