What are the ten best motorcycle movies? What are the worst? Who was the best racer of all time? How did the Hells Angels get started?

Gardiner answers these questions and more in this book. Broken up into 365 facts (one for each day of the year), each fact is a nugget of motorcycling info that will broaden your understanding of all things on two wheels.

The facts at end of the book deal with gear, training, and safe riding. They're mostly geared to newbies, but they still serve as good reminders for veteran riders.

My only quibble with this book is that he lists "Riding Man" as one of the ten best motorcycle books on the market, but doesn't mention until the very end that he's the book's author. Likewise, he lists "One Man's Island" as one of the best motorcycle movies, but doesn't mention he's the subject of the movie until he very end. But that's a minor quibble. This book still deserves to sit on every serious rider's bookshelf.

I have been reading journalist Mark Gardiner's insight to the motorcycle world for years, as his writing has appeared in every major English-language motorcycle magazine. This book enabled me to discard the all outdated and dog-eared magazines that clutter the bathroom, while still giving me something engaging and interesting to read. There are 365 trivia entries that really make you think! Like what was the first production motorcycle with electronic fuel injection... ok, that one is kind of easy. He also has an interesting opinion on the "Best places for motorcyclists to live" and "Lessons, Track Schools and why you need them". You're sure to learn a fun thing or two each time you sit down with this book. If you're a Harley fan, I'd suggest one of Allan Girdler's books, who just had several classics reprinted like Harley-Davidson Racing, 1934-1986.

This is one of my favorite motorcycle books ever. It is full of fascinating facts, and is fun to read. And the author also included some very insightful comments about riding and safety. Any avid motorcyclist would enjoy this book.

One of my best friends owns a bike shop where I hang out. He has the best sense of humor
of just about anyone I know. He deserves this book, and I am glad that the author finally got around
to writing it, we've been waiting !!!
I peeked at a few of the trivia. It's well worth reading. This copy will be worn out in a month if it stays
in the "Reading Room" at the shop.
If you can't read, please consider that the cover art is more than enough reason to have this on
hand in your "Library"! Cheers, Hap

I enjoy Marks writing and ordered this book thinking it would be a fun read. This book is very informative full of motorcycle history, once I started it I could not put it down. I enjoyed the short story format, it kept the book moving at a fast pace. It was more than i was expecting!

This is a great book to toss in the travel bag/briefcase when you have 15 minutes or so of down time as the entries are short, but informative. As the title suggest, bathroom reading is optimum, too. Gardiner breaks up the information into sections of related interest such as ten of Honda's most important bikes; great racers; must ride roads, etc. This is another good book from Gardiner. I also highly recommend his first book, "Riding Man" about his experiences of racing the Isle of Man TT. Great stuff.
