Sean,
Thanks for the additional info. The book is a nice piece, especially if you know one of the guys. But I'll see what Richie can do, since he is o ne of the riders who has rights to sell the DVD part of it.

Just to chime in- I help with a bit of the print production, and the
book is worth the asking price. Very well produced full color
photography book. Perfect bound with all sorta of fancy overprints and
spot varnishes. The photos of bikes, the production itself and rider
portraits are amazing and very high quality. One of the two filmmakers
is also a professional commercial/editorial photographer, so it's not
just a collection of random snapshots.
Also, if Brian/Ritchie are not able to supply, I can most likely
organize a group buy and/or possibly a discount if several people are
interested. However, let Richie has a stab at it first- as it is my
understanding that several of the riders were "compensated" with the
right to sell copies of the movie.
