This hardcover book chronicles the major motorcycle championships of 96-97. Most of all the pictures in the book are excellent.The article on italy's newest sensation, Valentino Rossi, was quite informative. A look into the background of a gifted rider.
There are a few faults in the book. One will find reading the commentary of the first few races quite exciting, but, after reading a few more races, one notices the commentary becomes repetitive and no longer exciting. The section on the technology was not satisfying, there could have been a showcase of all the major manufacturer's bikes detailing differences between it and last year's machine. All in all there were very few faults, an excellent buy for any two wheeled fan.
