Bryan Hall had a nagging thought that just wouldn't let go. Soon, that nagging thought turned into an itch...and the only way to scratch it was to pack up his scoot-his Harley-and ride it nearly 10,000 miles in forty days. From the shores of the Pacific Ocean near Seattle to the Atlantic seaside and back, the author and his buddy, Mike, rode their bikes through searing heat, oppressive humidity, bone-chilling cold, pouring rain...and often through picture-perfect weather. Outbound, they followed the cross-country Highway 50, which began with a sign in Sacramento, California, that read-Ocean City, Maryland, 3,073 miles-and ended in Maryland with a sign that read-Sacramento, California, 3,073 miles. They came home by way of the Blue Ridge Parkway, Niagara Falls, the Great Lakes, and then US Highway 2 across the northern area of the United States. The personality of small towns over large cities, the history of our great country seen firsthand, and unexpected adventures are all part of this road trip across America and back, all told from the view behind a set of 13" ape-hanger handlebars. The author is fond of saying, "There are simply no words adequate to convey how gorgeous this ride is." Bryan Hall, however, found those words-words that wax almost poetic in their simple beauty of expression for the scenery that these two Harley riders beheld while living their lives behind bars. Climb aboard, get on the open road, join them on the ride, and see just how intriguing life can be...Life Behind Bars.
