Kai Michael Raecke was a journalist for Easyriders Magazine for 32 years, a motorcycle enthusiast, world traveler, and a passionate philanthropist. He was born in Austria, and raised in the town of Freilassing in southern Bavaria by his maternal grandmother. It was here where Kai was introduced to his first motorcycle experience at the age of five by his neighbor who took him for a ride around their neighborhood. This moment sparked Kai's fascination with motorcycles —- an interest that would transform from a hobby to a lifelong career. In this book you will find a bittersweet recollection of the beauty, triumph, adventure, sorrow and heartbreak that constitutes a life well-lived. Kai Raecke's dry humor is perfectly paired with an ornate prose that speaks to the adventurer in us all. Though his adoration for motorcycles is present throughout the book, his lust for life, ultimate freedom, and adventure shines bright on every page.
