There are times when sitting on the couch in front of the TV seems infinitely preferable to rolling the motorbike out of the garage for a ride or putting the boots on to go for a hike, yet it’s rare that one regrets the effort. In this collection of motorcycling road trips, garage misadventures, bike reviews, and reminiscences, I try to convey my joy of riding, even when things don’t always work out perfectly.

Although long-distance travel has been severely curtailed by the COVID epidemic, I still managed to squeeze in a few short trips, encountering some interesting roads (some might argue "unsuitable" for the bikes I was riding) and intriguing situations along the way. As baby boomers like myself get older and the median age of motorcyclists climbs ever higher, it’s easy to find the couch more appealing than the bike seat. But don’t let those aching joints and wasted muscles hold you back. Life is short. The time is now. Do it while you still can.

Well worth the listen. Its not your world travel book but instead a local type adventure that you could easily relate to. Give it a listen, I think it's worth your time.

Another great little adventure

I have all of Nick’s motorcycle books and will be ready to buy his next one when it comes out. Mr Adams has a wonderful voice inflected with an English accent. Many authors who read there own book don’t do a vey good job. I really think Nick could find a second career reading other author’s audiobooks or doing voice work. During the off-season for riding, I live vicariously through these stories. Nick likes to ride on secondary and tertiary roads in northern Ontario and to a lesser extent Quebec and the other Maritime provinces. If you like a tale of riding where there are few people and little civilization, you will like these books. These are just good stories that are will read.

Great stories of motorcycle travel in the Canadian wilds.

Just like the book says, get out there before you can't. It doesn't matter what bike you have or where you go, just ride.

Get out there!

Otherwise a pleasant listen

For some reason, I didn't note before buying that many of the adventures in this audiobook are on his Moto Guzzi. I recently bought a Moto Guzzi V7 Special and listened to this while riding, listening with my Cardo Package Edge in my Shoe RF-SR helmet. Enjoyed his humble, yet adventurous travels, especially as they related to the bike company I ride. It's not exceptional journalism, yet I enjoyed it just the same. Then again, I enjoy most things about motorcycling.

Great listening as Audiobook riding Moto Guzzi

It could be that a true gearhead would enjoy, listening to all of the trials and tribulations that the author has experienced trying to fix his motorcycles. I prefer stories from the road.

A chronology of moto problems

self deprication is every 2nd sentence and then author trashes riders unlike him at the end

overly estrogenic for me
