and no northern Ontario ride is complete without a great pile of bear poo.

Peter..I stopped in Dorset on the way up.

Dusty..nope.

Sturgeon..I noticed that road...Perhaps next time

Green1000s...it gets better all the time. 89000 miles and nicely broken in. They thrive on regular use.

Me too. Great pictures, and I'm convinced that a Loopframe makes it more fun, even if there is bear poo involved!

It will be great to know it's being read in wildest Wales - I hope you have a very happy birthday.

BTW, while on the road I sold two copies to people who were drawn to the bike like moths to a flame. I just happened to have some copies with me..........

Because Amazon provides the tools for self publishing, creates the Kindle version and handles the print-on-demand. No cost to the author at all, except the time to write it and format it. It is available on Amazon.ca (and .co.uk etc.) in both digital and print.
