Quote: so it's taken me many months to finish, but now that we're in full gettin' ready for Georgia 08, i figured time was creeping up and i'd better get last year's story finished.
It has been months since I wanted to sit down and read your '...and this the road gave me' story. I had started on one occasion and, seeing it was a long one, decided I would leave it for when I could devote enough time to read it all in one shot, without distractions or interruptions.
I got up at 5am this morning, made a double esspresso and took myself, my laptop and my cigarettes onto my verandah. I took a few seconds to look across the water at the ships going into Piraeus harbour ... and then immersed myself into your tale, which immediately took me to a far-away land.
Motorcycle journeys have been my addiction since a teenager. After reading this, I now have more inspiration and an insight of what's to come on my upcoming US tour next year.
Your descriptions are so vivid that pictures are not even neccessary.
I have one question, two comments and one conclusion to make.
Question: Why did you do this to me??? I am now day-dreaming so heavily I am seriously contemplating not going to work today.
Comment 1: I think you are in the wrong profession. Comment 2: I sincerely think you are in the wrong profession.
Having said all that I have concluded that you are DEFINETELY in the wrong profession.
Thank you for the ride. What a journey!
Now where's that phone ... I need to make a call to the office.
