Former AMA Pro and CSS Coach Misti Hurst Launches “Discovering the Art of Cornering” Featuring Keith Code Foreword and Special Scholarship Fund
– Limited special signed editions contribute to rider training fund.
VANCOUVER, BC — Street riders and track enthusiasts looking to master cornering dynamics have a new definitive guide.
Following a highly successful Kickstarter campaign and massive pre-sale momentum, former AMA Supersport racer, CSS Coach, moto-journalist, mom, and now author Misti Hurst has officially announced the US market release of Discovering the Art of Cornering, the foundational first installment of the new Life in the Fast Lane motorcycle book series.
The book features an exclusive foreword written by motorcycle training legend Keith Code, as well as a comprehensive interview.
The launch is accompanied by high-profile validation from Code himself, founder of the California Superbike School (CSS). Holding the newly released book, Code states, “You need to read this book. The straight dope is in here for you—it’s worth it.”
Discovering the Art of Cornering bridges the complex gap between riding physics and real-world street application, with foundational crossover skills for the track. Written with an unapologetic, simple and direct approach to building confidence and safety, the book targets the exact mechanics required to master bike placement, manage traction limits, and execute better cornering.
By pairing structured training concepts with real-world examples and stories from racing and coaching around the globe, the book acts as a comprehensive masterclass in high-performance street and track riding.
Fast US Shipping and Rare “Tipped-In” Limited Editions
Backed by strong Kickstarter funding, a Project We Love Badge, and early pre-sale success, inventory is fully stocked and available for immediate, rapid shipping turnaround across the United States. (International and Canadian orders are currently being processed and will follow on a slightly longer timeline).
Alongside the standard US softcover ($34.95 USD) and hardcover ($49.95 USD) distributions, a highly restricted run of premium Limited Editions is available. These exclusive collector’s copies feature custom, artisan “tipped-in” signature sheets meticulously hand-bound and numbered by Misti into the front matter:

-
The Single- Signed Scholarship Edition ($155 USD): Hand-signed and numbered by Misti Hurst. Limited to 250 total copies, with only about 150 remaining. Each copy sends $18 USD directly to the scholarship fund.
The Forever 45 Peter Lenz Scholarship Fund
More than just an instructional manual, the Life in the Fast Lane series is actively driving the future of the sport through its dedicated charitable initiative:
The Forever 45 Peter Lenz Scholarship Fund.
Fueled by book sales and community backing, the fund has already successfully raised enough capital to send its first recipient, a rider named Rachel, to the California Superbike School for a full day of elite, professional track instruction. Furthermore, a matching sponsor has already stepped up to fully fund a second rider’s tuition. The project is actively seeking additional corporate and community track sponsors to expand these life-saving training opportunities to even more riders.
A Look Ahead: “Track Minded”
As riders master the street fundamentals found in volume one, the series will pivot to closed-circuit performance. The highly anticipated second book in the series, Track Minded, is currently in development. Focusing entirely on advanced racing psychology, track layout mastery, and next-level high-speed riding, pre-orders for the sequel are expected to open by the end of the year.
“Riders are constantly bombarded with confusing, conflicting advice given without reasons why,” says Hurst. “This first book was written to cut through the noise, give riders the exact, simple tools they need to ride better, safer and faster, and directly fund real-world education for the next generation through Peter’s legacy.”
