A great read and laugh she has a refereshing style of writing and does not dwell on political or socialogical problems. She had a vison and a determination to succeed which is all that you need to survive. Another fact is that she did not have a GPS some old basic maps to guide here all the way. The main point is that she managed to do this epic ride on a little 250cc motorbike with all here camping and gear so who really needs and can justify all those big 1200cc bike with GPS. I wish Lois well with her future travels and shareing her stories in future books.
