The Latest Dispatch:
Dead Bike on the Mountain
|
12/5/21
In our last blog post, we were stuck near the top of a mountain in New York state, and the bike was dead. The road had gotten pretty rough, and after a few too many falls, the motorcycle would simply not start again. It was the old gremlins resurfacing once more, but this time we were in a particularly bad spot. To make matters worse, the skies were getting darker and darker, not just with the approaching evening, but the deep rumblings of a thunderstorm could be heard brewing not too faraway. "This is bad," I just kept repeating over and over again... Click here for more. |

Experience the Adventure
Marisa and I are not fancy people. We travel on a motorcycle to fully immerse ourselves in this world - mud, grit, and all. Everything we've accomplished has been with our own money after years of saving, or from private donations. But these days we keep the trip going through book sales.
If you're interested in our journey and want to laugh, fret, and get inspired along with us, take a look at my three books in the series about our trip. Not only will you most likely enjoy them, but you'll be supporting the continuation of our adventures.

The adventure continues as Tim and Marisa Notier explore the ruins and backroads of South America. They encounter difficult terrain, friendly people, and the most beautiful landscapes that they have come across on their journey so far.
✮✮✮✮✮ - Tim Notier has already established himself as one of the country’s best travel writers. Blood, Sweat, and Notiers |
✮✮✮✮✮ - Great book! Written from a real rider. This was the type of book I was looking for...
✮✮✮✮✮ - If anyone is on the fence to read this, take a stab. ✮✮✮✮✮ - Tim's writing style is really wonderful. He'll bring a tear to your eye quickly even from happiness and he made me laugh out loud numerous times! 2Up and Overloaded |
✮✮✮✮✮ - This is a well written story about a couple starting their life and adventures together. Will certainly awake the adventurist dreamer in yourself.
✮✮✮✮✮ - This is a fun book that tells it like it is; the highs and low of long distance 2 up motorcycling. Maiden Voyage beckons the reader to pack up their bike, leave the interstates, and hit the two-lanes. Maiden Voyage |
