Synopsis

This elegantly written and lavishly illustrated book presents a series of portraits of Harley enthusiasts and their often obsessive attachment to this iconic motorcycle. From the President of Harley-Davidson USA to a backstreet mechanic, it will portray men and women in Britain and throughout the world who restore old Harleys, collect them, customise them, race them, tour on them, and even lead outlaw lives with Harleys as their transport. Includes: The original Hell's Angel, a millionaire collector and restorer, an official historian, top female drag racer, Europe's longest-established Harley dealer, a police Harley rider, the Blue Knights Club exclusive to ex-members of the emergency forces, and the Vietnam Veterans Club, the Masonic lodge with a Harley-mounted division of display riders, a Scottish independent biker committed to purist choppers, and UK and US celebrity owners.
