Good buddy Bob, who won our moto book drawing last quarter, sent this nice note to us a couple of days ago and we wanted to share it with you…<\/p>\n

Hey, Joe, just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for the <\/em>Destinations book. I can see it’s a compilation of your articles from <\/em>Motorcycle Classics (one of my favorite motorcycle periodicals, the other being <\/em>Motorcycles for Sport and Leisure, from the UK). You’ve done a lot of two-wheel travel, a lot more than I have, as I re-entered riding about 12 years ago after being off two wheels for several decades. I enjoyed your writeups on some of the places I’ve been on two wheels and other places I haven’t ridden, but have driven on family trips. I’m in NorCal and, as you know, there are many, many fantastic places to ride up here.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you for your promotion of motorcycling on machines which don’t weigh 900 pounds. The smaller bikes are very capable and I say that although I am by no means a small dude. I think your development of the CSC bikes is great and I also have interests in the REs, Janus, Genuine 400 and the Yamaha SR400. Maybe it’s just a retro frame of mind, I don’t know, but I like proper motorcycles like those.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks once again for the book and best wishes in your endeavors. Here are a few photos from my moto expeditions in the area, just for fun:<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"Bob, that’s awesome.\u00a0 We’re glad you’re enjoying Destinations<\/em><\/a>, and thanks for the kind note and the great photos. \u00a0 Ride safe, good buddy!<\/p>\n

If you’d like to order your own copy of Destinations<\/em><\/a>, you can do so here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
