Story4.5 out of 5 stars 18
There are times when sitting on the couch in front of the TV seems infinitely preferable to rolling the motorbike out of the garage for a ride or putting the boots on to go for a hike, yet it’s rare that one regrets the effort. In this collection of motorcycling road trips, garage misadventures, bike reviews, and reminiscences, I try to convey my joy of riding, even when things don’t always work out perfectly. Life is short. The time is now. Do it while you still can.

The problem: she doesn’t know how to ride and has only 30 days to learn. Four short weeks later, Linda joins two men and a woman for a white-knuckled, exhilarating road trip along the west coast from Vancouver, Canada, to the wine country of Mendocino, California....

In 1977, 15-year-old Rick asked his dad to enter a charity race. The twist? Rick wanted to run it too.

More than 1,000 races later, the devoted father son duo is affectionately known worldwide as Team Hoyt.

Jillian Daugherty was born with Down syndrome. On the day Paul and Kerry, her parents, brought her home from the hospital they were flooded with worry and uncertainty, but also overwhelming love, which they channeled to “the job of building the better Jillian”.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 43
Born a spastic quadriplegic, Rick Hoyt was written off by numerous doctors, but his parents, Dick and Judy Hoyt, were determined to give their son all the opportunities of a "normal" kid. In 1977, 15-year-old Rick asked his dad to enter a charity race. The twist? Rick wanted to run it too. Dick had never run a race before, and the thought of pushing his son’s wheelchair while running was daunting. But, once again, Dick and Rick were determined to overcome any obstacle. More than 1,000 races later, the devoted father son duo is affectionately known worldwide as Team Hoyt.

In that moment, Amy chose to live.

Loved hearing this after reading it. Fantastic!
I own and read the paperback version and wanted to try the audiobook version. This is pretty cool! Now I can take the treasured stories with me. Maybe even when I ride.
I happen to be one of the contributors and just listened to my own story. It's so different to hear your own story read to you by someone else. It literally brought tears to my eyes. I've shared my story with friends and co-workers and have been told they could feel the emotion in my writing. Well, listening to it left me with the same response. Wow!
I hope you enjoy this book and feel the words that these women share in their stories. It might inspire you to find and ride your own Iron Horse.
How wonderful to share the love of riding with ladies from other parts of the world. Enjoy the read, it's a fantastic conglomeration of women riding from different countries.
