From the publishers of Motorcycle Consumer News, Shifting Gears at 50 is a oneofakind motorcycling manual for returning and lateentry riders, essentially anyone 40 years old and up whos looking to hit the road on two wheels. Author Philip Buonpastore, a motorcycle journalist and retired US Air Force photographer, helps readers gear up to get back on a motorcycle (or get on one for the first time).In Part 1, Becoming a Motorcyclist, Buonpastore discusses the basics of buying the right bike, gear, and equipment and getting the bike up to speed. The book continues with a good overview of learning to ride, the importance of taking a road course, venturing out on the first ride, and extending rides to longdistance jaunts. Throughout Part 1 are sidebars by riding safety instructor and expert Walt Fulton, offering sound advice on safety precautions and execution for every leg of the new and returning riders journey.The author emphasizes what older riders should be aware of and which factors can affect their rides. Adding lots of great firsthand advice are humorous and helpful stories collected by the author and related by returning riders at various ages, from their late 30s to 60s.In Part 2, Buonpastore shares five of his favorite travelogues covering his longdistance tours around the US, from the American South to the west coasts. This section is illustrated by over 100 of the authors breathtaking photographs of the various locations he toured on his bike.The foreword to the book is provided by bestselling motorcycle author David Hough (author of I5 Presss Proficient Motorcycling and Mastering the Ride). Hough writes, If youre getting into todays motorcycling at an age your doctor would describe as middle aged or senior, do you yourself a clever favor and read Phils book.
