Just Two for the Road

About the Book

As a small boy, Gene Perticone dreamed of having his own motorcycle. He knew it would be a means by which he could enjoy traveling by himself to the places he longed to explore, at first close to home and then in the wider world around him. From his first dilapidated mootorcycle obtaained during his tgeens to the sleek and efficient cruisers of adulthood,he has used the "mechanical ponies" for recreation, relief from monotony and stress, and simple and direct enjoyment that could be available at the twist of a throttle. Just Two for the Road is about a child and then a man who learns to broaden his appreciation of the world by moving through it physically and mentally in a way that other forms of locomotion could never match.
