The Ghost of Scootertrash Past

Anyone who’s ridden over a million miles on a motorcycle is going to have stories—and lots of them. Still, Tiger Edmonds tells us that if he can have only one or two more shots at penning recollections of his cross-country trips, he might get it right. That’s like Bob Dylan saying that if he could only write a couple more dozen ballads he might master the form. This book is filled with just what fans of Tiger’s first book, Longrider, loved: pithy observations about what America has become, startlingly beautiful descriptions of America’s roads and the people on them, and candid vignettes that find plenty of positive character traits in non-CEOs and other denizens of the economic downside—scootertrash, in Tiger’s terms
