In the book “The Devil Can Ride,” which is edited by Lee Klancher, the reader finds an anthology of “the world’s best motorcycle writing,” (ok i stole that from its sub-title) and inferred by other references we’ve found. Seems the author has selected other authors, such as Mark Singer, Hunter Thompson, T.E. Lawrence, Robert Pirsig, Peter Egan, Kevin Cameron, Joe Scalzo, and approximately 20 more to highlight in his unique and witty book. There’s even a previously unpublished story by Darwin Holmstrom which covers the sexuality of motorcycles in which he explains how the Victory Vegas got him laid (by his wife). The story is funny as is the book informative in it’s eclectic collection of writers and styles In addition to the writings, there are black and white photos, often taken by the authors. The book comes in hard cover and is available from Motorbooks for $26.00 in the US, $32.50 in Canada. To access the publisher on line, click here, as well as Amazon.
