  Riding a powered two wheeler (PTW) is a high-risk activity and those who ride are often perceived as being 'risk junkies'. Exploring this leisure activity, this book utilises Fuller's task homeostasis theory along with Csikszentmihalyi's theory of flow to develop an understanding of the interaction between risk and goals.
