Thumbs up Winter Reading

"The Harley Davidson Experience. It's at www.badassbook.com. It's hand bound in genuine black pebble grain leather. It's funny and it's informative. Here's an excerpt:

Book Excerpt: Flappin' Cheeks
"Al had decided he was going to become one with the road so he left his detachable windshield at the hotel. I glanced over at him while we had the baggers mellowed at 3,000 rpm and his cheeks were plastered back around his ears. He looked like he was pulling around 8 G's, but it was just the wind making his face into silly putty. I wanted to slow down so he wouldn't look like he was suffering too much but I managed to overcome the thought and he kept flappin'." www.badassbook.com
