Missed Shifts, by Jerry Smith.

Missed Shifts ($22) is a collection of stories, essays and articles from veteran motojournalist and longtime Rider contributor Jerry Smith. Drawn from his work in print and online, the 196-page book includes the highs of riding fast motorcycles, the lows of riding them just a bit too fast, traveling to strange and wild places, the business of being a freelance writer and even a few fond remembrances of the dogs who waited patiently for him to return from his adventures.
