Don't buy any music these days, like to listen to the radio while I am working and occasionally read the odd book.

About to read this one for the second time....Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenence. First time it kinda took me off guard and think I might have skimmed over a few things that caught me by surprise.

It's a classic but aint entirely what it seems after the first few pages.

In fact it is 3 stories in one.

It can be hard going for a while, then settles down again.

If you sometimes read a book, or ride a bike it is a bestseller from 74 that has attained cult status and there would be worse things to do on your next holiday in the sun or 20 hour plane flight.

Only put this thread here as there is no "What are you reading thread"

 

tried to read it back in the day, was in the nick at the time but I bogged down, reckon i'll have another crack at it.

I've had a couple of cracks at it over the years.I find it very hard going.

Yeah I know what you mean.

First time I read it I found myself kind of skipping over the heavy shit and just enjoying the motorcycle trip.

Second reading only skipped a few pages of the heavy shit. And understood a bit of the stuff I could not digest the first time.

 

Have it on kindle but have never really sat down and got into it. will have to give it a shot when I get some down time
