Bestselling author, journalist, and motorcycle culture documentarian

Eric Hendrikx is a bestselling author and journalist whose work explores motorcycles, adventure, and the pursuit of the human edge.

Over the past decade, he has followed riding culture across continents—embedding himself with builders, racers, actors, and lifelong riders to understand what draws them back to the machine again and again. His work, spanning decades with Rolling Stone, Men’s Journal, Robb Report, and Revolver, has profiled everyone from global icons to underground craftsmen, always searching for the deeper story beneath the surface.

He is the author of multiple books, including Motorcycle Life, a global collection of more than 100 riders and their stories of obsession, freedom, and meaning.

Known for immersive storytelling and an anthropological lens, his work lives at the intersection of risk, performance, and identity—documenting a world where clarity is earned, not given.
