Bostrom crime family?

[Degsy]

I think it's a joke, or this guy is nuts and is gonna lose everything because he'll be sued by the Bostroms. Self-published book. Opinions?

The Bostrom Conspiracy

[Crash Dummy Denno]

[highsider]

I dont know, but I must admit to being intrigued.

[BMFR6]

[Jaynnus]

It's in my shopping cart on Amazon....I need to spend a cent more though to get free shipping.

I need something new to read...why not this.

You can read a few pages on Amazon if your interested.

It is for sale on amazon and barnes and noble....

[Degsy]

Jane, can I read it when you're done?

I've met both the brothers a few times and shared a few beers with Ben once. I think this guy might be a disgruntled ex-employee.

I don't want to put money in his pocket, but if Jane is buying the book, I'd like to read it just to satisfy my curiosity.

There are comments on RRW about this book, saying this guy is basically a scumbag.

Jane, can I read it when you're done?

You got it...and can pass it around when your done too

libel doesn't apply to famous people

[Jaynnus]

So, I ordered the book on the 14th, they shipped it on the 16th, from Springfield, as in Springfield, MA.....according to the tracking, it should be here by the 23rd.

[CMG241]

Give me a break, who here hasn't dealt some coke and stolen a few bikes..

[Jaynnus]

Got it, read it.

I will be passing it on to Degsy next, but won't post anything about it in case anyone else wants to read it.

If you want it after Degs, let him or I know.

Was it a good read? Believable?

Was it a good read? Believable?

Not the best reading book, not the worst. The allegations are plausable, but am I absolutely convinced they are true? neither yes or no, plausable and possible yes. In the end, do I care even if they are? no. Did this story, 'rock the world' as it claimed? No. Do I think in the end that the author must have been a dumbass to have all of this happening under his nose for all those years and be clueless? YES YES YES I think I spent more time thinking about how dumb this author (and main character) is then thinking about the 'conspiracy'! I closed the back cover thinking "well, there, you just told the whole world your story.....about how dumb you are"

Still somewhat interesting though, and since I like to read anyway it was ok for me. It also brought back some great memories of certain bikes especially the instroduction of the Honda Interceptor, racers and era's of time gone by.

[Degsy]

OK, I have read it now. Ditto what Jane says, author must be as dumb as a brick, but I think his allegations are very true after reading this account.

Who wants it next?

Quote from the roadracingworld article...

"I witnessed it as the Bostrom brothers progressed from riding 883 Harley-Davidsons to Supersport bikes to Superbikes in AMA competition, earning rides with professional teams based on their ability to ride motorcycles."

See, riding an 883 is the first step to stardom and greatness.

Well everybody knows that HD riders are gang members.

Natural logical assumption for this to happen ...
