Book 2~ ‘A Slight Change of Plans: Map out your future but do it in pencil’
A fascination with motorbikes and a naturally rebellious spirit from an early age led this book to a life in a bikie club; hanging out with Sydney bikies in the 80s, meeting rockstars and One Percenters. But what happens when an unexpected accident changes your life? From bikie to disability advocate, this book has never let anything get in the way of living life … even their tattoos have stories!
