Overview

Strap in for the ride of your life with *Fatboy Chronicles: The Greatest Motorcycle Rides in America, Told from the Saddle of a 1990 Harley* by Jack Wellingham-a adrenaline-fueled love letter to the open road, penned by a rider who's logged over 300,000 miles on his battle-scarred, oil-leaking beast of a bike. From the hairpin horrors of the Tail of the Dragon's 318 curves in 11 miles to the sky-high switchbacks of Colorado's Million Dollar Highway at 12,000 feet, Wellingham takes you on a cross-country odyssey through America's most legendary routes. Dodge granite walls on New Hampshire's Kancamagus Highway, chase UFO lore along Nevada's Extraterrestrial Highway, and soak in the salty freedom of California's Pacific Coast Highway-all while outrunning monsoons, tornado sirens, and the occasional deer ambush. With a voice that's half tour guide, half wisecracking rebel, Wellingham spills the unfiltered truth: why his carbureted '90 Fat Boy (no ABS, no traction control, just pure, thumping soul) outshines any modern machine; the diners where waitresses call you ""sugar"" and refill your coffee like it's gospel; and the soul-stirring moments when a sunrise drowns out the engine roar. Organized by region-from the Northeast's unforgiving twists to the Northwest's rain-soaked evergreens-this book isn't just about roads; it's about the interrogations they throw at you, the bad decisions that become epic tales, and the unbreakable bond between rider and ride. Whether you're a seasoned biker itching for your next horizon or a armchair adventurer dreaming of freedom on two wheels, *Fatboy Chronicles* will rev your engine and leave you laughing, inspired, and ready to hit the throttle. The road's calling-answer it.
