Synopsis
In The Riders , photographer and author Henry von Wartenberg (Art of BMW Motorcycles) documents motorcycle culture around the world with stunning images created in more than 30 countries over the past 20 years. The Riders explores and celebrates the differences and common bonds among motorcyclists around the world via Henry von Wartenberg's engaging and inviting documentary photography. Motorcyclists feel a kinship with fellow riders that is not easily explained but runs deeper than choices like bike brand or riding focus. You see it sometimes with a wave of the hand from one lane to the next, with an appreciative nod at a stoplight, or in a U-turn to check on a rider stranded on the roadside. Motorcyclists make a conscious decision to ride an inherently dangerous device, a machine open to the elements and vagaries of nature. A motorcycle demands a level of attention far greater than a car and consequences for inattention are much graver. On the flip side, riding a motorcycle offers an unmatched sense of freedom, adventure, and involvement. Von Wartenberg, a long-time rider himself, has traveled the world on a variety of assignments, some motorcycle related and others not. But wherever he was on the planet, he always found a way to connect with fellow riders and document their culture and machines. Over the course of his travels he has photographed riders in more than 30 countries including Bolivia, Austria, Canada, Chile, China, Costa Rica, France, Mongolia, Mexico, Italy, Germany, Iceland, Peru, Spain, the United States, England, and Thailand to name a few. What emerges on the pages of The Riders is the amazing breadth of the motorcycling world, from outlaw clubs to adventurers to racers to boulevard cruisers to those for whom a motorcycle is the only form of transportation as well a means to make a living. The Riders is a book sure to be enjoyed by anyone who embraces the two-wheeled world., The Riders explores and celebrates the differences and common bonds among motorcyclists around the world via Henry von Wartenberg's engaging and inviting documentary photography.
