Críticas:

"I felt as if I was right there on the back of the bike. Luscious descriptions and lavish details make this travelogue a delight to the senses. Equal parts biker, historian, philosopher, and foodie, you will enjoy Stephen's musings on the American Dream as seen from a motorcycle". - Lois Swagerty, Editor, Columnist.

‘This is a book that captures the ‘x’ factor of American road trips, call it romance if you like, but you’ll want to go when you’ve read it. Starling’s writing is wonderfully descriptive and you’ll find it hard to stop turning pages even if he’s telling you about lunch’. - Paddy Tyson, Editor, Overland Magazine.

"Is the book a rewarding read? Yes, I think so. Will it make you want to do the same things? Quite likely. I'd certainly be happy to pick up other books by Stephen, and I think it would make a terrific present for an older rider," - Stuart Hopper's review in Australian Motorcyclist magazine.

Praise for Stephen's First Book: "It's a terrific read and you'll find yourself going back to it again and again" - Peter 'The Bear' Thoeming, Editor, Australian Road Rider.

The strains of hard traveling expose raw emotions between the three buddies, but these tensions dissolve in the reckless escapades that ultimately rebuild their bonds of friendship.

More than just a terrific traveller’s tale, the book reflects on the country’s tumultuous history and depicts the diversity of peoples and lifestyles in contemporary USA, and asks the question: Is the iconic American Dream fading?
