Book Review Printed from the International Journal of Motorcycle Studies 2007-06-16 12:13:53 By Don HenniganFrom November of 2006Motorcycle
travel books are an established genre, from Robert Edison Fulton, Jr.'s One Man Caravan to Alan Noren's Storm. Such books written by women, however, are still relatively rare. Karen Larsen's book Breaking the Limit recounts "one woman's journey" from Princeton, New Jersey to Alaska and back, on "Lucy," a used Harley-Davidson 1200 Sportster, modified with a larger gas tank and windshield. While it might be argued that most motorcycle travel books emphasize the adventures and dangers, Larsen does, at least in part, the reverse: she is intent on demystifying motorcycle travel for non-riders while invoking all its pleasures.Traditionally books about motorcycle clubs are written by outsiders who ride for a time with the club or by members who have Read more:International
