Life's journey is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out shouting Holy Chit......... What a Ride!

In 1974 he wrote a book called  "Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance" and sold about 5 million copies. It was based on a 1968 motorcycle trip he took with his son.

I've read that.  Just didn't remember the author.  Maybe it time to re-read.
