The Shed, Issue 31, April 2008UKmagazineCirculation: unknownSoon to hit the streets is a new book out by Ian Grainger, or as most of you know him, Iggy from Scootering. Those of you who have never heard of him should not be in our scene!! Over the past few years you would have seen Iggy around at rallies clicking away with the camera ... now you know why. The book itself is published by Veloce Publishing Ltd and is available in paperback only with 128 pages and over 200 color pics ranging from the early eighties to the present date ... so you may be in there!! Right the book itself ... I loved the raw edge of the pages giving it a posh scrap book feel and you even get a tea cup stain to go with it! It starts off with 'The Wonder Years' giving you an insight to how Iggy got involved in the scooter scene in the early eighties, thru to Disc 85 and his first scoot '50 Special'. Even mentions the riots of IOW and the grief down at Margate! This then leads on to the 'Scooter Boys Through the 80Ts' which takes you through the smart Mods to the scruffy Psychobilly Scooter Boys (yes we all went thru it!) with the grass skirts and tatty rat bikes. Some really good pics from these early times that do bring back memories. In this chapter you also get a bit of info on VFM and how it all started for those of you who did not know. Nik from SBW gives a good write up. We then move on to the 'Twilight Years' of the 90T's which were a bit quiet after all the hassle in Margate in 92. Not a lot really happening in this bit of the book. Then we get to 'The Dawn of a New Era' which brings us up to date from the turn of the century (wow that sounds old !) This part of the book along with the next chapter "IOW" will interest a lot of the 'born agains' who have got back into the scene over the past few years. Lots of great pics from 'HiH' to 'Vegas' to "Strictly Scooters" and of course the Nationals.... Oh and The Shed Rallies even get a few pics Cheers mate!! The IOW pages see some fine photography from Modded up scoots to Street Racers and Cut Downs. Look at page 58 and you will see what I mean! If you wanna see yaself in print these are the pages! Section 6 sees Iggy describing how the local ride outs have become more popular around the counties with Alliances springing up everywhere and again some good pics. Chapter 7 sees "Scooter Racing and Tuning" which describes how things started from the 60T's to modern times and you also see Stu Owens 124 mph Lammie! Next up is "The Custom Scene"... so who's up for spending 25 grand on a scoot '... well you see it in here and you get an interview with Ferdy from Insane Innovations which is quite cool if you like something a bit different. Then I get to the next chapter and start flicking thru and I come across SiR and Shedster bloody Dave Porter in 'I am One of The Faces'.. only joking Dave you have earned it old son! This Chapter gives you an in depth description of the main faces over the past decade or so in our beloved scene, ranging from the famous Norrie Kerr to the guy who makes the rally scene click, Steve Foster (VFM) and finishing up with Dave Porter. All in good question and answer format which really does come across well. We then finish up with 'Welcome To The Future' which says it all (we get another pic cheers Iggy!) A good review with Terry Walters of The Darkside about the auto's in our scene and where things are going. To sum this book up and to be honest it is Way Hot! and thatrs"s not me licking up because I got a freebee ... It really is. Great pics new and old and written like one of us in English with no long words! This is a MUST for any scooterist. You will not put this book down and when you do and want to have another look at it you will find something different to meet your eye.

Good Luck and well done Iggy ... about time someone got off their butt and gave the public what they want!, Review from Twist & Go, April 2008UKmagazine You'll all know Iggy's name. He's been a regular contributor to this and to other scooter magazines for years. Well, he's just written his first book called 'Scooter Lifestyle'. The title tells you what it is all about the scooter sce≠ it's well written, drawing on his personal experiences from his early days as a spotty teenager. It's not specifically about autos, but is well worth a read. Review from Classic Scooterist Scene, June 2008UK magazine This latest scooter book is written by regular magazine contributor, Iggy, who has been a regular supplier of material to this and other scooter magazines for many years. He is also a well-known 'face' on the scene, being involved in organising various activities at national rallies, including the IoW and Cleethorpes and as such has a diverse wealth of experience to draw upon. It's his first book and it's called 'Scooter Lifestyle'. The title tells you what it is all about - the scooter sce≠ it's well written, drawing on his personal experiences from his early days as a spotty teenager on his Vespa 50 and right through to the present. The book is well written with plenty of pictorial backup to help set the scene and mainly concentrates on the period of time from the early 1980s. It centres on Iggy's experiences of his first scooter and the development of his chosen lifestyle, expanding throughout the following years into coverage of the scene and lifestyle as it is today. Also featured are interviews with a few well-known scooter-related faces to complete the picture. Although written from a personal point of view, 'Scooter Lifestyle' provides a fascinating insight into the scooterist world and as such, it's well worth a read., Review from Twist & Go, April 2008 UK magazine   You'll all know Iggy's name.

And coincidentally, this book follows on nicely from Mark Brough's 'Time, Trouble & Money' that I reviewed a couple of issues back in which Mark described his adventures within the scooter scene during the 1970s. Pictorially rather than text led, Scooter Lifestyle boasts over 200 colour images that cover various aspects of the scooter scene since Iggy first got bitten by the bug in the 1980s. A mixture of personal experiences (an 'Into the Sunset' if I ever I read one, being his trip to DISC 85 on a chartered coach filled with schoolmates, arriving on the Sunday as the rally was coming to a close - how dedicated we all were in our youth!), Iggy touches briefly on various aspects, describing them from his point of view, rather than going into them in detail, letting the photos lead your way through this book. At times the images may suggest that if you weren't in 'that crowd' at the time, then you missed out. Then you turn the page and see the section on the IoW for example where an assortment of images capture the variety of machines and people that this event attracts very well indeed. With a strong focus on the scene of today, the book covers local alliances and scooter racing too, as well as featuring interviews with Norrie Kerr (VE UK), Steve Foster (VFM) and Dave Porter (rally DJ). If there's a criticism it's that to an extent each section could be arguably described as narrow in subject rather than showing the broad spectrum, but with just 128 pages at his disposal Iggy was never going to be able cover the entire length and breadth of the UK's scooter scene since 1983 in this book anyway, unless he deleted all of the pictures and used very small handwriting. Indeed he has done as he told me he'd set out to do, and that is create a coffee-table book that can be picked up and put down at will without losing the plot, yet still offer variety to entice - from the rebellious '80s with dodgy quiffs to Sunday rideouts and the modern auto scene, and all in between. So in summing up, m'lord, if you've been part of the scooter scene over the last 20 years or so then you'll know most of this already, but it's not a book that's necessarily there to teach you something new. You look at the pictures, recognise the tale, search for your own face or scooter in the background and then reminisce with your mates! -Review from Scooter-forums.com, 2008 UKwebsite There has been plenty said and written about scooters over the years but until now there has been no definitive look at the culture surrounding our chosen way of life.
