"Every once in a while, a book does cross the desk that wakes us up, and The Essential Guide to Motorcycle Travel, by Dale Coyner, is just such a volume. . . . This book should be in every serious rider's library. . . .We've been riding for many years, yet we found his way of formatting a trip helpful, preparing the rider so there are fewer surprises along the way. . . ."Outfitting Your Bike" is the chapter that rally caught our attention. Dale gets into everything from lighting and GPS to how to solder wires! After reading his take on GPS receivers and satellite tracking, we will probably go out and buy one. The final section, "On The Road," is loaded with tips and how to handle on-the-road repairs." - Road Iron magazine
"This is the second edition of this book and we loved the first. The new version adds much more to a superb book full of the tips, ideas and information on "Planning, Outfitting, and Accessorizing" yourself and your machine if you plan on doing some serious riding and touring. . . . There is never a need to learn from your own mistakes when you have a concise and well-written guide such as this. Modern concerns for today's riders are covered as well, with information on GPS, Bluetooth and action cameras all in the guide. Dale Coyner's The Essential Guide to Motorcycle Travel is just that -- essential. . . .well worth the investment." - Brian Rathjen, Editor of Backroads magazine
"For anybody who has never traveled far in a single trip, let's say a thousand miles, this book is a real savior, covering the rudiments as well as the latest electronic sophistications. . . . but beyond the basics Coyner's book deals with all the latest electronic gimcrackery, from communicaton systems to helmet cameras -- very useful. I should add that this is the 2nd edition, the first having come out in 2007, and the new edition has a lot of the latest gizmos, dealing with advances in the last seven years, making this updated edition useful even if you have the original. . . . Had I had the benefits of The Essential Guide to Motorcycle Travel, back when I took my first real motorcycle trip, I would have been a good deal happier." - Clement Salvadori, Rider magazine
