"In my million miles riding BMW motorcycles, I have ridden to all of the areas described and illustrated in the 17 chapters in this book. I have ridden some of the routes suggested by Mr. Coyner and sometimes have ridden similar routes nearby. The author captures the nature and the flavor of each of the regions well, and will whet the reader's appetite to pick a direction and go. The book ought not just be used as a literal route planner, for to do so would shortchange a rider when visting any locale. The book is most valuable as a trip planner. It makes great off-season reading so a motorcyclist can plan an area to visit on his or her next great adventure." - BMW Owners News magazine
