Always check sidestandup.com for up to date info. In Riding with Rilke, Ted Bishop takes readers on the road through some of the richest landscapes in North America and Europe from Edmonton to Durango, Austin to New York City, London to Bologna, and Geneva to Rome, with numerous stops along the way. Whether describing the archival jolt of holding Virginia Woolf's suicide note in the British Library or the outlaw thrill of cruising Main Street in small-town America on a bike nicknamed Mostro,Bishop tells a story filled with insight and humour. His quest to unite the scholar and the motorcyclist, the academic life with the life of the senses is a reminder of the struggle we all face in reconciling the personal and the professional.
