Acerca de esta escucha
This audiobook isn’t just for motorcyclists. It’s for anyone who dreams of doing something magical, but gets stuck in excuses and self-doubts. It’s for anyone who needs encouragement to do that something they’ve always wanted to do, but haven’t.
Motorcycle Dream Ride is bigger than a play-by-play account of two guys riding their motorcycles to Alaska and back. It’s a story about exploration, perseverance, and friendship. It’s a story about two friends doing something they had made excuses not to do for years. It’s also a story about silencing the “I can’t do that” inner voice that lives in all of us.
"I wrote this book so Mike and I can remember what we experienced along the way—the people we met and the challenges we overcame. But, bigger than that, I wrote this book to challenge you to live your big dream." (David Mixson)
Motorcycle Dream Ride is the second book in the Motorcycle Smarts book series.

There are times when sitting on the couch in front of the TV seems infinitely preferable to rolling the motorbike out of the garage for a ride or putting the boots on to go for a hike, yet it’s rare that one regrets the effort. In this collection of motorcycling road trips, garage misadventures, bike reviews, and reminiscences, I try to convey my joy of riding, even when things don’t always work out perfectly. Life is short. The time is now. Do it while you still can.

Historia
In this book, you'll find one of the most in-depth, simple to understand explanations of lowside and highside crashes that exist—anywhere. Riders die every day in these rider-induced crashes—and it doesn't have to be this way. Mastering the art of riding a motorcycle well is about understanding and overcoming rider fear. It's about having the head knowledge of how your motorcycle works so you can make it go where you want it to go. It's about understanding why riders crash so you can avoid making the same mistakes.

Old or unsuitable motorbikes, distant places, poor weather, and gravel roads, these are the common threads in Nick’s motorcycle travels. He’d been hoping to ride out west a couple of years ago until a little heart trouble intervened. Two years later, a short "shake-down" trip morphed into a 9000 mile journey across the continent. Trouble free? Not exactly. Riding a 1972 Moto Guzzi Eldorado, a Suzuki Burgman Scooter, and a 1976 Moto Guzzi Convert (automatic), and ever optimistic, Nick heads for the Canada’s distant horizons.

“Well, now I’m committed,” he thought to himself after telling a national TV game show audience that he wanted to ride a motorcycle to Mongolia with his winnings. He felt the fear that commitment always induced in him; he was hoping they might have edited that bit out. Commitments are something he tried to get as far away from as possible, the only other constants in his life being twenty-five years of financial prudence, travel and motorcycle obsession.So there he was, committed to going very, very far on a motorcycle with his meager prize money. Consequently, he spent a winter on eBay and a spring in the garage preparing his $1000 KLR 650 for an uncertain life on the road.

Scott Jurek is one of the world's best known and most beloved ultrarunners. Renowned for his remarkable endurance and speed, accomplished on a vegan diet, he's finished first in nearly all of ultrarunning's elite events over the course of his career. But after two decades of racing, training, speaking, and touring, Jurek felt an urgent need to discover something new about himself. He embarked on a wholly unique challenge, one that would force him to grow as a person and as an athlete: breaking the speed record for the Appalachian Trail.

Historia
In a book that is "a must for anyone who has loved a motorcycle" (Oliver Sacks), Melissa Pierson captures in vivid, writerly prose the mysterious attractions of motorcycling. She sifts through myth and hyperbole: misrepresentations about danger, about the type of people who ride and why they do so. The Perfect Vehicle is not a mere recitation of facts, nor is it a polemic or apologia. Its vivid historical accounts are intertwined with Pierson's own story, which, in itself, shows that although you may think you know what kind of person rides a motorcycle, you probably don't.

Historia
In a book that is "a must for anyone who has loved a motorcycle" (Oliver Sacks), Melissa Pierson captures in vivid, writerly prose the mysterious attractions of motorcycling. She sifts through myth and hyperbole: misrepresentations about danger, about the type of people who ride and why they do so. The Perfect Vehicle is not a mere recitation of facts, nor is it a polemic or apologia. Its vivid historical accounts are intertwined with Pierson's own story, which, in itself, shows that although you may think you know what kind of person rides a motorcycle, you probably don't.

good book
Overall it was a good story but way too many chapters A lot of those chapters could have been Grouped together. I did appreciate his Final thoughts on their ride plans As it will help me to rethink my ride plan this year to Florida

Inspirational, interesting story for a fellow motorcyclist wanting to do something similar
it was a real thorough, interesting account of each day of the ride with lots of details about the places they visited, the journey to each destination, the people they met and things they did, it's worth your time. I would have liked a bit more about the motorcycles because I love that stuff but it was still great, I found the reader to be annoying, didn't like his voice, intonations, and some of his pronunciations, wait until you hear him say "glacier," fingers on the chalkboard for me

Terrible narrator
The book is interesting, However I wish the author went into more details about gear, and the roads traveled. Narration is horrible. I honestly thought the voice was AI generated. There is a total lack of inflection in his voice, no enthusiasm, and the inhalation before a sentence ruins the listening experience.

Inspirational! Don’t miss it!
You might not expect to be inspired by a book about a motorcycle ride…but you will be! It’s a very detailed story about 2 friends riding from Alabama to Alaska. I could not stop listening! I had to know what they encountered and experienced the next day! The uniqueness of the book is the author’s desire to inspire you…and,that, he does!

Great Book
This was a great book and it has inspired me to get out and ride more. The only negative was that the narrator wasn't from the south and mis-pronounced words. Don't let that discourage you. Listen to the book.

Enjoy the journey
Enjoyed listening to the journey of 2 good friends. Was a fun time between 2 good friends of like interest. Made me smile as I did an 11 day back packing hike on the AT with a friend and I had never camped a day in my life. Many stories- I wish I had documented better. Good job David! And yes, everyone needs a Mike in their life. I took the lead only one time on our hike and within 5 minutes we were off the trail in a bear den! Ha ha!
