A "personal essay" in the tradition of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. It's about motorcycle design, the rebirth of the "Indian" brand, and the quiet, subtle virtues of a Harley-Davidson. It's about how New England place-names begin to make sense after you've lived here 20 to 30 years. It's about the phony food and the phony architecture of corporate franchises. And it's about searching for the authentic on a motorcycle--and sometimes finding it when you get far enough out of town.
"New World Notes" is produced under the auspices (Latin for "Executive Dining Room") of WWUH-FM, a community service of that beacon of light in darkest Connecticut, the University of Hartford.
