State To State

I have just finished reading a book called Good Vibrations : Coast To Coast By Harley by Tom Cunliffe.

It is a travel book written by a keen motorcyclist who travelled, along with his wife Roz, from Baltimore to San Francisco and back again on their Harley Davidson bikes.

I like travel writing and at first I was a little put off by the theme of the bikes as I have no interest in them and the passion that surrounds them from their owners. The use of the bikes as the main form of transport in the book did offer something different when compared to other books in this genre.

The three month trek highlights the struggles they encountered on certain roads, experiences with fellow bikers and interaction with the many characters found in the midwest.
