A look at the world of motorcycling, its quirky characters and the bikes they love. Beautifully photographed with over 50 stunning images.
With written portraits and compelling photography, 'Highside' is an affectionate look into the lives and experiences of Australia's motorcyclists and their communities.
The book captures the passion that motorcyclists share for their bikes and where it takes them - physically, emotionally and spiritually. How does motorcycling shape their identity? Is their motorcycle a toy, a tool or an extension of themselves? Each chapter focuses on a motorcyclist or a motorcycling community - where they ride, how they ride, what they ride.
The book is rich and full of variety: racers, dirt bikers, gangs, clubs, collectors and restorers, weekenders, commuters, farmers - young and old, men and women. Intimate photography portraits bring these characters to life.
