Whitehorse Press doesn't carry Gathering Speed - Tales of Motorycles and Life. Sometimes folks ask me why. I have corresponded with them on several occasions about it. Here is what they had to say most recently...

Hi David,

Nice to hear from you again. There's no mystery here. Our audience is motorcycle enthusiasts. We try to anticipate what products they will buy in sufficient quantity to justify space in our catalog to present the products. We see lots of products throughout each year and we choose from among them those we feel have the best chance of "earning the cost of their space" in the catalog. Most of the products we see are not chosen for the catalog. Each time we have evaluated GATHERING SPEED, we arrived at the same conclusion: we don't think we would sell enough to recapture the selling cost. Sorry.

Best regards,

Dan
