Where the Road Meets Spirit is a compilation of the twelve individual Life Lessons from Motorcycle books.
Bring together a motorcycle and rider and alchemy is inevitable. Not only does each partner unite and become as one, the merger is transformative, creating a new state of being. One is transported from the past to the magic and timelessness of present moment.
The lessons motorcycles evoke are practical yet esoteric, awakening all senses, and nourishing body, mind, and spirit in a way that nothing else can. They call to one’s sense of adventure, creativity, compassion—and passion. They’re wise, compassionate, and lead by example. They’re also unforgiving, which is why their lessons are so meaningful.
While words can come close to describing this partnership, its true richness and depth comes only through experience. Each ride is uniquely personal and I cannot speak for anyone else. The 900 lessons that follow are an attempt to recreate what’s come about through hundreds of thousands of miles of riding over more than four decades. Like the ride, the teachings are timeless and often repeated in fascinating and beautiful ways.
It is however the lessons of the spirit where motorcycles truly excel. As any rider knows, motorcycles connect you with Spirit and ultimately with yourself.

About Liz Jansen
I’m an author, writer, facilitator, and adventurer. I work with people to see that when they've mastered two wheels, they can master anything. I help them to discover their strengths, and explore and overcome the things that hold them back so that they can start to do what they really want with their life.
I help people who are considering change, dealing with change, or going through life transitions, create the life they want.
Whether their experience is personally or professionally initiated, the learnings are transferable to all areas of their life.
Because a motorcycle has figured so prominently in my life, I use the stories and metaphors from these experiences to inspire others.
