Be happy in your work…

…and I sure am.  Imagine that, getting paid to ride a motorcycle around China!  And hey, that’s not all.  Just as I did for the Western America Adventure Ride and the very-capably-led Colombia moto expedition (with a tip of my helmet to my good buddies Juan and Carlos), I’m going to write a book about the upcoming China adventure!

I’ve got good news, and I’ve got more good news:

• Riding China will be available by the end of August.   Our China adventure is 37 days long, I’ll write the book as the trip progresses, I’ll return to the US around 8 August, and I’ll wrap it up when I get home.  You can bet it will contain great stories and awesome photos just like 5000 Miles at 8000 RPM and Moto Colombia! (don’t take my word for it, though…check out the reviews on Amazon.com and on the Internet forums).
• You can preorder Riding China now through CSC, and we’re running a couple of “Don’t Miss The Book” specials I want to tell you about.   Riding China will retail for $22.95; if you preorder it now we’ll ship an autographed copy to you for just $15.95 (plus shipping) at the end of August.
• Here’s the second of our “Don’t Miss The Book” specials:  We’re doing a Chronicles of CSC:  The Trilogy special…you’ll get 5000 Miles at 8000 RPM, Moto Colombia!, and Riding China (all autographed) for just $39.95 (plus shipping)!   That’s like getting the Riding China book for free!   All three books will ship to you as soon as Riding China goes to print, which will be the end of August.

Both of our “Don’t Miss The Book” specials are good only until our China ride ends!  We’ll have a link on our site for these specials in the next couple of days, or you can phone your order in by calling us now at 909 445 0900.

Two more days, folks, and then it’s wheels in the wells and I’m bound for China.  Woohoo!
