Bikers around the world share their stories and obsession in this highly visual celebration of motorcycle culture 

Through 100 dynamic interviews and dozens of captivating photos, Motorcycle Life is a love letter to the motorcycle and the people who ride it—a mosaic of human stories, funny, raw, and sometimes heartbreaking. Motorcycles aren’t just machines. They’re vessels for escape, for adventure, for freedom. Readers will learn how each of the bikers featured in the book came to love riding, what their favorite bikes are, and the biggest lesson they’ve learned. There’s actor Jason Momoa, who first rode on a bike at age 6 and has a deep love for vintage Harleys; Tom McComas, a stuntman who has doubled for celebrities in movies, such as Ben Affleck in The Town, and whose love of bikes came from his dad; Carey Hart, motocross pioneer and builder, that after 23 bike related surgeries, and near death, he learned mental, physical, and emotional resilience. This is a book for the lifers, the new bloods, the weekend warriors, the road dogs, the gravel ghosts, and anyone interested in being inspired by the people who live their lives on two wheels.
