What surprises me most is that from time to time I'll see a letter to the editor in Cycle criticizing his column and wondering why it is still in the magazine. Certainly everyone has different tastes, but I have trouble conceiving of anyone actually disliking Egan's writing.



If you like Egan -- whether or not you like motorcycles -- you owe it to yourself to pick up a copy of the first volume of Leanings (cheap enough on Amazon). His writing there is even better than when he's writing about cars. If you like it, you can buy the second volume, too.
