About the author:

Professional motorcycle guide and writer Gregory Frazier is the only biker to have circled the globe solo four times. He has followed the map to the ends of the earth—from Dead Horse, Alaska, to Ushuaia, Argentina; from North Cape, Norway, to Cap Agulhaus, South Africa. Specially outfitted motorcycles have taken him more than one million miles across twenty-four time zones. Frazier is the authority on long-distance motorcycle travel.
