Easy Riders

Born to be wild! Our Easy Riders are essentially wild dogs and cool guys, who convince with their own values, attitudes and life style. People who are not easily irritated. Not by modern times anyway. These are guys like Walter Röhrl, who drove the rally of his life in Kenya in 1979, or Steve McQueen during the shooting of “Le Mans”. Such guys also drive the Toyota Land Cruiser cross-country in Kallinchen, the pearl on Motzener Strand, or the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera on the Isle of Man-TT circuit. And for sure, they will take a road trip from coast to coast in America with the Mercedes E550. Don't you think so? Then find out in this issue.

If you think logical thinking is the perfect epistemological tool, you’d better put this magazine aside right now. Unfortunately, life is not unconditionally logical. More like merrily untamed. But no matter.

People may think logically – but also always intuitively. The ideal philosophical method: …
