It is the motorbike that makes Vietnam tick. In Saigon alone, two million ply the streets. People commute by bike, father take their kids to school by bike (you`d be surprised how many at a time!), & products find their way to the consumers by motorbike. The bike as backbone of the economy the bike as carrier of goods & people the bike as beast of burden. A remarkable selection of Hans Kemp`s finest shots
- often taken from the back of one of the self-same bikes
- quirky, mystifying, eye-opening, frightening & downright unbelievable. Can you really get that many people on a 50cc bike? How can he drive that thing when his load blocks his vision? Why doesn`t the whole thing fall apart under the weight? Dead pigs? Surreal, man.

Bikie lays bare the true heart of cycling. Every grass-roots enthusiast, keen racing man & elite professional has one thing in common: he loves his bike & riding it. The author pinpoints the source of his love, tracing its development in the individual, how it draws people into a community & then a tradition
- creating a whole worldwide culture to celebrate that deep affection for what is a technological marvel & transcendent experience. Great champions, too, are inseparable from their bikes. They merge into them, becoming a composite image, figures of myth. As well as exerting an emotional hold, cycling, in its famous races, also mounts a living proof of exemplary virtues: courage, perseverance & self-sacrifice
- gives us, in fact, a glimpse of the higher reaches of the human spirit. There is a sense of this mythical realm in every pedal turn, for once astride a handbuilt lightweight we are put in touch with the greatest riders of all time. Bikie is the story of one man`s passionate involvement, but in its forthright sincerity it goes to the roots of what we all share.
