I'm only at page 35 of 318
The first 10 pages or so start off pretty slow, but rapidly gets better.
This guy sells his home in California and rides the world. Ships his bike to Japan to get to Vladivostok Russia so he can ride the Trans-Siberian Highway to Mongolia so he can spend some quality "alone" time in the Gobi desert. Then back through Russia to Western Europe to wait for permission to ride Iran. Thats as far as I've read so far
This is the same guy that, a few years prior, was riding through South America and was captured by Columbian Comunist rebels and was held captive and tortured for weeks. He wrote a book about that ordeal, "Two Wheels Through Terror"
