The Lost Biker Stories Vol 1

Often considered as the glory years of motorcycling, the 1960s-1980s are defined by a hedonistic lust for adventure, adrenaline and good times.

Many stories in this book have never been shared before, and some of the photos haven’t seen the light of day for decades, until now.

From risking it all in Jamaican street races, to road trips down to the south of France on Nortons, runaway weddings, Soviet Union era mishaps on Jawas, reaching 190km/h on the German Autobahn with no helmets, police chases, and days spent in the Mojave desert with nothing but your memory to guide you home.

Breakdowns were a near certainty, road networks poor, adrenaline sky high, and a lingering sense of jeopardy- constant.

And if you managed to stay in one piece while on the bike, there were unhinged biker rallies, ruthlessly territorial Motorcycle Clubs and the infamous battles between the Mods and Rockers to navigate.

What a glorious time, indeed.

Welcome, to the Lost Biker Stories.
