Product Description

Here is a true story about life brought full circle, and the powerful healing influence of a unique motorcycle. It could be any motorcycle, including yours. Growing up in the shadow of one of the world’s most respected motorcycle mechanics, author Matthew Biberman spent most of his life distancing himself from the mechanical passions defining Big Sid. Then a near-fatal heart attack stripped Big Sid of the will to live, and son Matthew finds inspiration and purpose reuniting with his father as they share a journey both personal and mechanical, in the quest to build America’s first Vincati – half Vincent, half Ducati. What Matthew has produced here is a remarkable, memorable book. It is as great, wide and deep as anything that’s ever been written about, and around, motorcycles. This is an irresistible combination about a compelling step-by-step construction and re-engineering project, and the framing of a mystical and emotional story about life’s greater truths. Here’s adventure, mystery, romance, philosophy, history, passion and of course motorcycles- lots and lots of motorcycles. Big Sid’s Vincati is one of the coolest books ever written about motorcycles and motorcycling. You’ll recommend it to others with conviction, saying “You have to read this.” Unforgettable. Paperback. 288 pp. 6”x9”.

When you buy the book, you'll receive an auto-graphed postcard, signed by the man himself, Matthew Biberman {Big Sid}. We have a very limited number of these.
