What's the Existential Biker all about?
It’s about living the life you were meant to live. I woke up to that after living most of the life the way I was expected to. I was a consumer, like most. Buying things in the hope that they would bring happiness. All that happened was a hollowness and continued grasping, because I was fed and bought into the illusion that things and security meant happiness.
All the time, I was only helping someone else to buy into their dream and wish fulfillment which was probably as twisted as my own. What I really needed was to be who I always was inside, an adventurer and a warrior. Then I woke up and finally did something about it. I started to embrace change, life and my own potential.
The STOIC RIDER
by Louisa Swaden
A true story about courage, change, and choosing your line in life.
Blending philosophy with the unpredictable business of being alive, The Stoic Rider explores how we find direction — through salt flats and breakdowns, quiet kitchen tables and unexpected turning points.
You don’t need to ride a motorcycle to recognise the journey. It’s about deciding who you want to be, carrying on when the road is rough, and occasionally laughing at how absurd it all is.
I wrote this for anyone who’s ever stood at the edge of a decision thinking, There must be another way to live.
Not louder. Not faster. Just wiser.
Time is Precious.

A Note from Louisa
A Note from LouisaThis isn’t a book about motorcycles.
It’s a book about being human: facing fear, changing direction, beginning again, and occasionally laughing at how absurd we all are — in the best possible way.
Whichever version you choose, I hope it keeps you good company.
Time is Precious.
