Title: Riding With Rilke Post by: orangelion03 on June 22, 2010, 07:03:53 PM By Ted Bishop. Just got a copy yesterday and started reading it a few minutes ago. Chapter One, "Why A Duc?" is worth the price of the book.
Title: Re: Riding With Rilke Post by: DoubleEagle on June 23, 2010, 08:10:45 PM Hard cover or soft bound ?
Dolph :) Title: Re: Riding With Rilke Post by: Moronic on June 24, 2010, 01:58:02 AM Thanks for the heads-up, orangelion.
I'd not noticed this one. Had better get hold of a copy. Nice interview with the author here on Twisting Asphalt (http://twistingasphalt.com/index.php/2008/02/24/ted-bishop-riding-with-rilke-author-speaks-with-twisting-asphalt/). I like the bit where he explains why he picked a Monster for touring. Title: Re: Riding With Rilke Post by: orangelion03 on June 24, 2010, 06:20:25 AM Dolph: I bought a soft-cover copy. Used through Amazon...$.75 for the book, plus $2.95 shipping. YMMV.
Moronic: Thanks for the link to the interview!!! Title: Re: Riding With Rilke Post by: m1moto on June 24, 2010, 11:57:35 AM Great book,
Found a used hard copy on Amazon Title: Re: Riding With Rilke Post by: AndrewNS on June 25, 2010, 05:27:22 AM I read it back when it first came out...sort of a funny book. Parts of it are really interesting motorcycle/life type stuff, but then other parts get a bit academic. I liked it, but maybe not for everyone.
Title: Re: Riding With Rilke Post by: ScottRNelson on June 29, 2010, 01:59:43 PM I have a copy of the book and enjoyed reading it. I'll have to read it again one of these days.
