Scraping Pegs

The Truth About Motorcycles

​

 

Do the worst rides make the best stories?  Is the worst ride better than not riding?  Scraping Pegs - An Inquiry Into Motorcycles.  An honest Love Letter to Bikes.

​

From the deserts of the Middle East to the U.S. and Canada, Michael Stewart has chased the allure of motorcycles for much of his life. Through them came a wealth of experience, and this question: what is the truth about motorcycling?  Told with honesty and wit, Scraping Pegs is nonfiction throttled up; an irreverent, satirical look at a lifestyle and popular culture, including “rules” to help you survive the art of riding motorcycles or life (Rule # 1: Everyone Is Trying to Kill You!). It’s a bold narrative exploring two of the fundamental questions of life: why ride and how not to die.  If you seek enlightenment, read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.  Scraping Pegs is truth.  Motorcycle truth — it is what it is and it ain't what it ain't.
