The Ride of My Life is a coming-of-age book, both for Justin DeLoretto and for America.

Justin joined a 1%-er motorcycle club in pursuit of age-old values of brotherhood, honor and respect. He never lost those values, but he watched them come under fire in America as clearly as in club life, where gaining personal power become the highest objective, rather than honoring the code that once bound his community.

Pursuing a new career in social work, Justin carried the old values to a new generation of youth caught in the riptide of a world increasingly defined by personal gain over communal well-being.

Reviews for The Ride of My Life: From Street Gangs to Motorcycle Clubs to Social Worker

"""The Ride Of My Life is a must read for anyone fascinated by the Skin Head, music industry, and American Outlaw Biker Culture. It is a gripping, powerful chilling inside look at an Outlaw Motorcycle Organization that is changing the organized 1%er lifestyle landscape. This is a classic story of redemption, adversity, hard work and overcoming fears and stereo types. It's about lifestyle changes and adapting to new cultures that somewhat parallel each other in one way shape or form. Justin 'Mooch' Deloretto, displays bravery, tenacity, service, and impact to the reader. This by far is the most powerful book I've read on the American Biker Culture and history of the Mongols Motorcycle Club."" -LIL Dave 1%er Retired International President, Mongols Nation Motorcycle Club ""The Ride of My Life is an engrossing and thought-provoking memoir that offers readers a captivating glimpse into the life of Mooch, a man who has traversed two vastly different worlds - the Skinhead Against Racial Prejudice (SHARP) movement and the perilous landscape of the 1%er Motorcycle Club (MC) culture. The book presents a compelling narrative that oscillates between themes of racial prejudice, personal struggles, and the powerful pursuit of self-discovery. Throughout the book, the underlying theme of empowerment and resilience remains steadfast. Mooch's experiences, both positive and negative, serve as a powerful testament to the human capacity for growth, change, and the pursuit of a better life."" -Marco Michaels, founder of Cinemills TV"
