Boris Mihailovic is an Australian journalist, author, and lifelong motorcycle rider best known for his brutally honest, darkly humorous writing about motorcycling culture. He spent years writing for Australian Motorcycle News and his popular blog, Brain Dead Motorcycle Club, where his no-filter style won him a loyal following among Australian riders. Mihailovic’s writing reflects both the joy and the harsh realities of life on the road—brotherhood, freedom, crashes, loss, and the mental battle of riding fast and living dangerously.

This book is a memoir and a collection of stories from Mihailovic’s decades-long love affair with motorcycles. It captures his encounters with Australia’s harsh landscapes, outlaw bikers, dangerous roads, and his own reckless tendencies. Each chapter is part confessional, part tribute to the spirit of riding.

Themes include:

• The thrill and risk of high-speed riding.

• Brotherhood and the unspoken bond between riders.

• Personal struggles with violence, addiction, and mental health.

• Stories of legendary bikes and their equally legendary owners.

• A deep, poetic reverence for the road and the machine.

It’s not a technical book about bikes—it’s a personal, sometimes philosophical look at why people ride, what it costs them, and why they’ll never stop.
