Black Darien Jacket and Tall Wesco Boots

Words and Music, by golly (with apologies to Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller)


He wore a black Darien jacket, and tall Wesco boots,
And a heated Gerbing vest with reflect tape on the back,
He had a BMW, that was polished more than run,
The fool commuted daily, on highway 101.

Well he never shaved his faced, though he always styled his hair,
He had triple mocha latte underneath his fingernails,

Motorcycle Safety books I've read

This is a list of rider safety books- or at least, books on riding skill, which is mostly the same thing- that I have floating around the house. If I'm waiting for a phone call, or otherwise have a few minutes to fill, I pick one up and flip it to a random page.

In no particular order:

  • Proficient Motorcycling, David Hough
  • More Proficient Motorcycling, David Hough
  • The MSF's guide to Motorcycling Excellence
  • Sport Riding Techniques, Nick Ienatsch
  • Ride Hard, Ride Smart, Pat Hahn
  • Total Control, Lee Parks
  • Twist of the Wrist, Keith Code
  • Twist of the Wrist II, Keith Code
  • Soft Science of RoadRacing Motorcycles, Keith Code
  • Motorcycle Roadcraft: The Police Rider's Handbook (UK)

The first three are basic and follow the safety "party line" in the US fairly closely.
