Full Description
The Stoic Rider: Philosophy in Motion is an unconventional motorcycle memoir that blends ancient Stoic philosophy with real-world experience on the open road. Louisa Swaden - writer, speaker, and land speed record holder - explores how we meet fear, build resilience, and live with intention in a world full of noise and change. From the salt flats of Bonneville to the silence of Death Valley, she reflects on how motorcycles have become both teacher and mirror-inviting us to ride with clarity, courage, and meaning.
With dry wit and poetic defiance, Swaden weaves personal stories, philosophical insights, and timeless lessons into a companion for seekers, riders, and anyone navigating transition.
Each chapter explores a Stoic theme, such as Memento Mori, Amor Fati, and The Obstacle is the Way-brought to life through vivid, high-speed experience.
