From the Back Cover:

"Cycle World"'s Kevin Cameron is the most insightful motorcycle racing journalist and technical writer on the planet. He not only understands why racers race and how motorcycles perform, he explains both in ways that lead the rest of us to "aha" moments. This second volume of Cameron's articles and columns highlights his perception that the pursuit of higher performance improves our general understanding of the way things work. Referencing motorcycle geniuses like Soichiro Honda and Erik Buell, and legendary machines like the Bimota Tesi and the Britten V-1100, Cameron shows how racing serves man's never-ending quest for excellence.
