Roar and Thunder: Motorcycle Journeys, A Memoir

From Cushman motor scooter to 4-cylinder Honda, Roar and Thunder is a personal lifetime journey of owning and riding motorcycles. Solo or two-up, it tells of riding adventures through six western states, Canada and Mexico—what was going on at the time, and the changes in motorcycles and attitudes about them. There are twisty open roads, sand trails, quick boring freeways, traffic jams, high desert winds and blinding blizzards. The big motorcycle evens of the past are here—Death Valley Run, Indio, Lone Pine, Yuma Prison Run, Sunday Poker Runs, and just rides for burger and beers. Absent are Harley-Davidson only events. If motorcycles are part of your life, come along for the ride.
