We love the book. I bought it for my wife’s birthday as she has been riding since she was a kid and is a road racer and instructor in California. So many great stories and pictures. There are reprints of many old advertising posters that promote big motorcycles to women. It seems that there has been far less marketing to women in more recent decades. But that is changing fast. If you are planning a book from 1950 to present… women buyers are the fastest growing segment in motorcycling and hope you include many of the racing women from Tammy Kirk on dirt ovals of the 80s and 90s to motocross champions, to the many fast women racers of today. The AFM in would be a good place to start… Also a lot more women’s riding clubs are getting started like Curve Unit in California.
Anyway, that’s future fodder. This is a beautiful book that we’ll enjoy reading for years.

I’m the luckiest girl in the world to be brought up with this amaizing music. My dad was a legand! He loved these guys. He was lucky enough to be the CEO of Warner Music Australia, and he brought these guys to our shores. My dad is a forgoten legand, unlike these guys!!!!!

The book looks fantastic, Cris, and I am really happy that my 81 year old Mom, Ruth Baer Arnold, made it into your book. My grandfather, Fritzie Baer, would have been thrilled with your book as motorcycles were his life.

It is going to be the only book on my coffee table. I wonder if this book is the first one written from the female perspective.
