Verle loved motorcycles and motorcycling but even more he loved the Colorado and Utah plateau, desert and canyon country. He was as good a writer as he was a rider and his writing came from his keen sense of observation and boundless curiosity. He was a person of profound integrity. Verle shared some of his favorite places with me and my son, Dominic. Both of us will not soon forget the nights we spent by a campfire talking about first things. Kurt Simpson
