Hundreds of trips along the same stretch of common road—Interstate 94 between Fargo, ND and Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN—would for most be a long, tedious and all-too-familiar boring journey. These nine stories were written over eighteen years and reveal the value of riding more deeply and truly than common ‘I rode there’ travelogues. For this rider, traveling forth and back (…again and again) was an opportunity for meditation, contemplation, ideas—and a venue for making life’s greatest decisions. This is a wonderfully comforting dip into the experiences, feelings, brains and emotions of everyday all-the-time motorcycling. Softly inspiring stories that read as true as the endless Midwestern prairie itself. Stories about piloting a road and a life, accompanied closely by the thrum of a BMW r 65 and the essential feelings and experiences of pure motorcycling. By Rand Rassmussen. Softbound, 6"×9", 64 pp., b/w illus.
