About this product

Product Information

I can't think of anywhere I'd less like to be than in a car. When you're driving a car, you're not taking part, you're a spectator. You're in a can; if it's cold you turn up the heating, if you're hungry you have a wine gum. You might be looking at what's going on, but you're definitely not a part of it. A BIKER'S LIFE is the dramatic, humorous and candid memoir of one of the most recognisable names in motorcycling. Henry Cole's passion for motorbikes began when, at the age of eight, he was first introduced to a 'man cave'. His great-uncle Redbeard's corrugated iron shed was 'stuffed to the gills with old motorbikes' which Henry helped rebuild and ride. Since then, Henry's life can be charted through the bikes and journeys he has been on - from a stifling public-school education, via many years battling addiction, to the big-sky iconic routes Henry has ridden for over twenty series as presenter of numerous TV shows. This book reminds millions of motorcyclists why their bike gives them the freedom to be exactly who they want to be: to say 'Fuck you, fuck the world, I'm doing my thing.' When you ride a motorbike you become part of a worldwide community of kindred spirits - those of us who will not be pacified by driving a car, but instead live for adventure, escape and the sheer thrill of the throttle.

    Other side of Henry, amazing reading!!

    English not my native but it was easy to read. A good story of life from heroin addiction to motorcycles. Different sides of life and people. Results and consequences. The purpose of family. It is really adventures on the road, in all meanings. An ode to British automotive industry in some way. And philosophy of sheds of course! And all that woth a bit of humour. Cosy reading, in cold winter nights till your motorcycle waiting in the garage for new season and new trips. And even if you're not into motorcycles you'll love it anyway!

  • An excellent bedtime read!

    Henry Cole’s personality bursts through this memoir on every page. There’s not a huge amount of depth; it’s a basic no frills blast through his life’s ups and downs but entertaining nonetheless. Punctuated with a description of his bike collection ( including technical inaccuracies! Good old Henry) this is an entertaining and engaging read with the occasional philosophical reflection. Recommended!
