By Mat Oxley I have known of this book for some time but only just got around to reading it on my way home from Norway. This was such a fascinating story I could not put it down and I am not a big follower of motorsport. I used to […]

I always read some moto stories when flying to my latest adventure
A Fast Bike Through the Badlands
By Andy C Wareing It has taken me a little while longer than usual to read this book from Andy. I finished it on my fourth and final flight from home to Germany where I am currently melting in a freaking heat wave. It is very well written like the […]
Read MoreFree Ride
By Noraly Schoenmaker I don’t follow the Itchy Boots YouTube channel. I watched a little when Noraly was in the Antofagasta de la Sierra but nothing more. That’s not a negative review because I really can’t bring myself to watch any of the popular moto vloggers for long enough to […]
Read MoreA Fast Bike to North Cape
By Andy C Wareing I was going to wait and read this later but took a peek and then could not stop and ended up reading it though in one day. Which is another way of me saying I enjoyed this book very much and could not put it down. […]
Read MoreNorth to Norway
by Stephen Oliver This book was recommended to me by Sam Manicom and I am very grateful for the tip as I learned something very important for my own ride in Norway later this year. Stephen is one of these rare people who can remember all the little interesting things […]
Read MoreA Fast Bike to Byzantium
Book Review. A Fast Bike to Byzantium is the first of a series of books written by Andy C Wareing available on Kindle all with the theme of A Fast Bike to ‘a destination’ and all are about Andy’s moto adventures when he was a younger. I enjoyed his first […]
Read MoreThe Moment Collectors Asia
Book Review I enjoyed the original The Moment Collectors book produced by Sam Manicom so when this sequel was announced I grabbed it and what perfect timing as I could read this on my way to China for my own latest ride in Asia. I again enjoyed reading this collection […]
Read MoreTimeless on the Silk Road
Book review – Timeless on the Silk Road by Heather Ellis. I did some non motorcycle travel recently so as always made sure I had something to read in Kindle while sitting in airports and planes. Heather Ellis had ridden through Africa and was working as a motorcycle courier in […]
Read MoreThe best of Peter Egan
By Peter Egan I’ve read some of Peter Egan’s writing before and decided this collection would provide a way to pass some time on another long haul journey to ride a far away place. Peter is a very talented writer. I wish I had a fraction of his skills. The […]
Read MoreThe Bad Editor
By Peter Jones The Bad Editor is a collection of previously published motorcycle magazine columns and a look behind the scenes at what motorcycle journalists used to get up to in the days before the internet when we still bought magazines and what was written in them was fairly influential. […]
Read MoreAround the World On a Small Motorcycle
By J. Peter “The Bear” Thoeming I have a number of motorcycle travel books in my Kindle about events that happened a long time ago and of those have only managed to finish reading two; Jupiters Travels and One Man Caravan. Books about overland travel made long ago can suffer […]
Read MoreThe Zimbabwean Psychiatrist’s Hat
By Spencer James Conway I enjoyed Spencer’s first book. It followed his motorcycle travels around Africa including many dangerous hair raising adventures. However his second book promoted as being the story of his motorcycle journey around South America is not actually that, nor is it very good. At the end […]
