Publisher Description
The Best of Peter Egan offers a “greatest hits” collection of Egan's motorcycle musings from the past four decades, delivered in his signature, wise but amusing, style. Peter Egan's writing invites you to pull up a chair, pour a little scotch, and relax while he shares with you his tales from the road, his motorcycling philosophy, and his keen observations about the two-wheeled life.
For some forty years, Peter Egan’s columns and feature articles have been among Cycle World's most anticipated monthly content. Egan's legions of fans know they will gain a fresh perspective on motorcycling from each of his articles.
Drawings from motoring artist Hector Cademartori beautifully illustrate Egan’s musings, and a foreword by super-enthusiast Jay Leno introduces the book. This is an unforgettable collection from a master writer whose simple adventures of two-wheeled life remind us why we love to ride.
Customer Reviews
The best motor columnist in the world cannot wait to read any and all of his columns
 Peter Egan speaks to a generation of motorcycles who grew up in the 60s and early 70s. He also writes columns about cars, he’s just an amazingly talented writer who conveys emotion and experiences like no other. If you love motorcycles, read this book and all his other books as well. I hate to see his columns disappear from the now online magazine, cycle world, but these collections of columns are just so enjoyable, especially for someone of my generation. Though I’m 10 years younger than Peter we both started riding and racing motorcycles about the same time I got my first dirt racing motorcycle the year he returned from Vietnam so many of our experiences are parallel. He warms my heart and allows me to look back, finally on the sport of a lifetime.
