<><><><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><><><> Chris, I bought a copy straight from Adrian earlier in the year. It is a KLR and it's an interesting read although it started to get hard to pick up for maybe the last 1/3. He's a complete novice at the beginning and the bike is pretty much bone stock. He tears it up pretty good and goes places I wouldn't even think of trying to ride. He just didn't know it couldn't be done. : ) There is more about the adventure with the people he meets along the way and who also help him than there is about riding and bike mechanics like we're used to. Lots about his observations and the cultures. If you order it from Adrian maybe ask him for an inscription. I didn't realize I was buying my copy right from him and it would have been nice to have him personalize my copy. It'll be an ok winter read.

I liked it. Its a good read that focuses more on the human aspect than the technical aspects of adventure touring. He goes places that are just unbelievable. The stories about the people he meets are very interesting. Dean Wegner '02 KLR650 Wisconsin
