          I was just looking at your site. I couldn't stop laughing at your cat story. I have done a similar trip as yours, just not soo far. Gas prices keep me close to home. I did indeed win $20 on a bet that I would not go to Oklahoma and back in one night. I did indeed return with a photograph on a friends camera, similar to your salt and pepper, of me standing next to the OK border sign. I know it is dumb, but it is the ride that counts. Strangely enough, I live near Dallas and did ride through Denton. Needless to say, I think that I will be getting your book(s) soon.

              Those are always the best rides. A goal, but not a solid one...and no particularly valid reason for accomplishing it.

              Pre orders are going briskly...the press proofs should arrive tomorrow!

                  Preorders now! I'm getting close to turning in the first print run order. Preorders (and free US shipping) end then...

                  And wear out all the pages you want! I'll make more!

                    It's not the tattered corner pages that are the problem so much as the ones that are stuck together?? lol.. Musta been a really good story!

                        I have seen your stories and not bought a book. I will order one through your site and wanna get it autographed if I may! I recently did my longest ride, 700+ miles...no interstates... not long for Iron-butts like you but I am hooked and ready for the next one. I cant wait to read about some of your adventures.
                        I will have to start at the first one and work my way up to the new one!
