“Sod the wine, I want to suck on the writing. This man White is an instinctive writer, bloody rare to find one who actually pulls it off, as in still gets a meaning across with concision. Sharp arbitrage of speed and risk, closest thing I can think of to Cicero’s ‘motus continuum animi.’

Probably takes a drink or two to connect like that: he literally paints his senses on the page.”

A HIGHBROW FANCY LITTLE DATE

First, get this Richard Thompson song about the '52 Vincent on rotate, quite loud, so you can look at these beauties and perve at your leisure. All bikes some (mostly) blokes rode to Bunbury the other day in West Australia. I bow to my brother Stephen who rode the silver Bimmer and took all these photographs ... other than cropping the beautiful Vinnie Gizzards above, I put them up as they were taken ... photos by Stephen White ... all these bikes were rud there to it.
