Picked this up out of a pile of books while I was in Iraq. Pretty quick read and has some funny stories in it. Details about the book here (http://lifeisaroad.com/stories/2004/10/26/lifeIsARoadTheSoulIsAMotorcyclereviews.html).
Just PM me your address and I'll snail mail it off.
Cheers,
Pete

I trust it was better than this book (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1558505296/ref=ox_ya_oh_product). I saw it promoted in the Barber Motorsports Museum, but didn't want to spend $25 on it, snagged it off Amazon for $4.07 including shipping. Might have paid too much anyway. The author talked about "driving" his motorcycle and couldn't so much as change a tire without the help of his girlfriend. Very good insight to economical indicators in various locales, with a consistent free market perspective that I often found better than his motorcycle tales.

I like Meyer s writing style. I should look for his books (http://lifeisaroad.com/) down at Half Price. Being that I'm kind of a skinflint (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skinflint)

He's a super nice guy (Daniel Meyer), friend, Valkyrie rider, and a fellow Texan. He really does attract strange happenings like his books say.....:rider:

Tao of the Ride by Garri Garripoli is another good one of that respect. pretty quick read. he is pro-Harley, as that is what he rides, but its a nice read none the less. Im reading it again right now, and would be willing to loan it out when I'm done with it.
