This book can be split in two. The story, and then the philosophical rambling that makes me never want to hear the word Quality again. 

I didn't mind the story. I appreciated that he knew how to fix his motorcycle. I liked his depiction of his fellow riders. 

The philosophy made my eyes gloss over, and I've decided philosophy isn't my thing. I'm not sure how this book is so beloved. But to each their own.
