The Ride of My Life

The Ride of My Life is a coming-of-age book, both for Justin DeLoretto and for America. Justin joined a 1%-er motorcycle club in pursuit of age-old values of brotherhood, honor and respect. He never lost those values, but he watched them come under fire in America as clearly as in club life, where gaining personal power become the highest objective, rather than honoring the code that once bound his community. Pursuing a new career in social work, Justin carried the old values to a new generation of youth caught in the riptide of a world increasingly defined by personal gain over communal well-being.
