Sturgis & Beyond With Joe & His Harley, PorkChop - Paperback

by Joe Matus (Author)

"Hey! Let's get together and go to Sturgis." He had heard it a hundred times before. Then the excuses started, and one by one, they chickened out.

Then he screamed! "The Hell with it, I am going come Hell or High Water."

So he rode off alone into a new adventure, traveling the lonely highways and byways. All the while encountering huge hail, furious and unrelenting storms, killer Bugs and deep mud holes that almost swallowed him and his sidekick PorkChop.

And of course, the beast (Jaws) that almost devoured them both and the vultures that stalked them through the unrelenting scorching desert.

Sit back in your easy chair and ride along with Joe as he takes you onto the asphalt on a wild ride into the unknown. . . .

The stories are full of adventure; they are thrilling, challenging, and comical.

An enjoyable read.

Author Biography

Author....Joe Matus

MY MOTTO IS:

We only have one life to live, but if you do it right, ONE IS ALL YOU NEED.

My two passions in life are flying my airplane and riding my Harley.

As a child I grew up in a little beach town called Santa Cruz, nestled between San Francisco and Monterey, California. I lost my parents early in life. Consequently, as a young child I had a different orientation to life than most young children. I spent a good deal of time alone and found my own way.

I am currently semi-retired, having worked in the Insurance Industry for almost 40 years and I am also a Real Estate Agent.

My saying is:

Four wheels move the body, Two wheels move the Soul.
