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

Book was great! Rarely seldom read and my attention span is slim but this book had me reading it nonstop!much respect to the mooch! Finished this book two days almost nonstop! I recommend everyone who has not read this book to check it out you won’t be disappointed! What an adventure this dude has had!MLR and dope book!

This is a good and current read. A story of someone evolving from the virility and craziness of youth to the wisdom and humility of getting older. The way Mooch conducts himself on podcasts and in writing this book leads me to believe he is a man worth knowing. Oh yeah it’s also about motorcycles which is always cool.

Justin “Mooch” Deloretto has lived a fascinating life and has used that to write a fascinating book. He was a SHARP (Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice), a leadership member of a 1%er MC, and a social worker. His book talks about each of these iterations, but focuses on his time in a 1%er MC, which I was most interested in (I read and review a lot of MC Romance novels). This book reads as very real and sometimes gritty, but never negative. I liked his philosophies of honor, tradition, brotherhood, and positivity. Indeed, he looks back at his life with a positive attitude and sees the tough times and the good times as having equal influence shaping him. I think that anyone curious about the MC lifestyle would find this book very satisfying. I wish the author the best of luck in his future endeavors. I was fortunate enough to receive an advance review copy for free. This is my honest, voluntary review.

A very accurate depiction of how crazy , and demanding a 1%er life is…. And how he was able to turn his life around

Overall it was a good book but kinda short and covers but also still keeps alot of “club business” secret. Mooch’s downfall was he did a million interviews and basically told 75% of what was in the book already for small YouTubers with 100subs. I heard of him thru those interviews so it was a good thing but you gotta keep some stuff for the book at least. If you’re picking this up with limited knowledge of mooch it’s a great book and you can tell he was truly trying to make changes in the club for the better and a genuine good guy. I also read Juniors book the unknown mongol and it’s nice to hear from mooch who I believe more than junior about what a dirtbag junior was in the club. Overall good book I’m happy with my purchase. I just used text to speech on each chapter and flew thru the book. I wish it included more club stories and more in depth about that like the unknown mongol books.
