À propos de ce contenu audio

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 20 series as presenter of numerous TV shows.

This audiobook reminds millions of motorcyclists why their bike gives them the freedom to be exactly who they want to be: to say '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.

Henry addresses so many issues which this life contains and there are so many lessons to be learnt from his book, if one cares to listen and take on board. This audio book would not, without doubt, have been the same if anyone other than Henry had narrated.

Personally, I found it so interesting, brutally honest and totally enjoyable, so much so that I would like to thank Henry sincerely for writing it because although I've not been a drug addict, there were certainly aspects which resonated with my life and definitely rang true for me.

Whoever you are, pick it, read it or listen to it because there might just be something which will ring a bell in your head. It could even change your life for the better, maybe even change the way you interact with others and in some cases, hopefully be less judgemental of 'Bikers'.
