That photo above is one I took of Sam Manicom, adventure motorcycle traveler and author extraordinaire, at the Horizons Unlimited event in Mariposa a couple of months ago when I purchased the two Manicom books you see above.
I just finished reading Into Africa (Distant Suns is next on my reading list), and I’m here to tell you Into Africa was an amazing read. Africa, from top to bottom, on an 800cc BMW, with no support outside of the occasional fellow travelers Sam rode with and his own wits. Folks, trust me on this one…if you like a great story, Into Africa should be on your reading list. You can visit Sam’s site and order his books here.
