Born of lightning and fire, it flew into the air, writhed in the pleasure of its freedom, and screamed in ecstasy as it flew toward me." 10,158 miles. Incredible thunderstorms, raging forest fires, dense smoke, hail, sleet, cops, a half-a-dozen paramedics, bears, and even a dragon or two.you know.the usual stuff. Ride the Alaskan Highway all the way there and back again. It's 4365 miles each way, Dallas to Fairbanks.
Entertaining bit of fluff about the dreams and fantasies, mixed in some proportion with reality, of the motorcycling author. Written as a collection of short stories, a nice interlude for a few quiet moments on a cold winter evening in an easy chair with a cup of hot chocolate.
