Storm
: A Motorcycle Journey of Love, Endurance and Transformation
A Motorcycle Journey Around the Baltic Sea
by Allen Noren
Allen and Suzanne were seasoned travelers, and when Russia's Baltic states opened up for
visitors in 1993, they eagerly embarked on a trip there. What they couldn't foresee were
the record-breaking storms, desolate landscapes, and most significant, the cracks in their
relationship that the trip would expose. Part love story, part edgy travelogue, and at
times darkly humorous, Storm shows the fragility of human connections in the face of
unexpected forces. Hardcover - 340 pages (May 2000) Travelers' Tales Inc; ISBN: 1885211457

Diaries : A Journey Around South America
by Ernesto Che Guevara, Ann Wright (Translator)
Full of high drama and comedy, The Motorcycle Diaries is the story of a remarkable
road journey in the words of a 23-year-old medical student known as "Che". There
are fights, parties, and serious drinking. There are also moving examples of Guevara's
idealism and solidarity with the oppressed, in this vivid record of what for others would
have been the adventure of a lifetime. No biographical study or understanding of Che
Guevara is complete without the reading of his diaries recording his thoughts as he
journeyed around South America. Midwest Book Review Paperback

Long
Journey Home
by Robert Fulton Jr.
In 1932, Robert Fulton Jr. -- inventor, sculptor, architect, writer, film maker, pilot and
explorer -- undertook and filmed an 18 month motorcycle voyage around the world.
Descendant of the inventor of the steam ship, Fulton has travel and intrepid
adventure in his blood, and has only recently been acknowledged for his many creative
endeavors, including his work in photography and film. In 1932, following a year of
architectural studies in Vienna, young Fulton set off on a modified Douglas
twin-cylander motorcycle to film the architectural wonders of the world, but soon came to
realize that he was interested in filming people as well as places. Fulton credits this
journey with shaping his life, his attitudes, his curiosity, his respect for other
cultures and for nature, his understanding of solitude and interconnectedness. The
Long Journey Home chronicles the 18 month voyage from London, through Europe, the Middle
East, India and Asia, with stills from the original 35mm nitrate film Fulton shot along
the way. His beautifully composed images express the wonder of a young man realizing the
world for the first time, and reveal all the attendant felicity and tribulation he
experienced. Amazon.com

Bike Lust: Harleys, Women, and American Society
by Barbara Joans From Publishers Weekly
It's hard to be in love when your friends don't quite approve. That's the fix in
which anthropologist Joans (director of the Merritt Museum of Anthropology at Merritt
College, in California) finds herself in this mix of memoir, anthropological study and
apologia for the love of "hogs." The apologia is weakest: "Harley riders,
as a group, are racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, and misogynistic," she admits, but
so is "most of America." The anthropology here is accessible, despite occasional
academic terminology; for example, she divides bikers into seven overlapping groups of
men: Old Timers, One Percenters (outlaws), Ten Percenters, Old Bikers, New Bikers, Rich
Urban Bikers, and Occasional Bikers." The two major female categories (passengers and
riders) further subdivide: Biker Chick, Lady Passenger, Passionate Passenger; and Lady
Biker, Woman Biker, Woman Rider. But Joans's passion for the Harley and its riders is
evident in affectionate, respectful profiles and interviews. Joans, who rides a
Harley-Davidson Low Rider, is most engaging as a memoirist. Her accounts of bikers
training their kids to ride and a wedding attended by 3,000 bikers with "the bride
and groom, leather-dressed to kill" successfully convey "the glory and
godawfulness of riding the wind." Photos. Paperback - 280 pages 1st edition (September
