Read his books, met him a few times .... lovely fella
Very unassuming .... worth listening to
I enjoyed his books when I read them some years ago.
Back in 2016 I attended one of his talks in Arizona when I was travelling the Americas.
Ended up going to dinner with him at Al Jesse’s house, he of Jesse Pannier fame, and had a very enjoyable evening.
He was very generous with his advice and encouragement.
Sitting in our sidecar was a first for home too…although he was happy staying stationary.
Good interesting bloke.

I got his most recent book for Xmas (a compilation of stories from other authors) - again, another good read.
You must've met him Chris, he went to a few Hograosts.

I chatted with him at the NEC bike show a few years ago and he seemed to be a really nice guy, but I'm not keen on his writing style if I'm honest
Its not everyones cup of tea, very discriptive, which makes up for his awfull photos imo
I think Chapter five was by far the best.
Written by a devilishly handom, whitty and marvelous chap who embarked on a seven month adventure taking his DRZ400 from the Wirral in the U.K to Capetown in South Africa.
Did I mention how wonderful he is. Truly fabulous !!
Anyone who hasn't yet had the pleasure, should do themselves a favour

I had the pleasure of meeting the fella at a camping rally a few years back ,, a quiet self deprecating nice chap was my impression , not at all boastful of his exploits/ travels .
