    I just finished the book. 166 pages (letter sized), with half of it being the blog from the trip. I did end up editing that and adding a few small things if I noticed that there was a lack of continuity.

    :D

    Great! Awesome! Can't wait to read it! Of course, we'll have to wait on the publisher and all, but the hard part is done, so congratulations now, and let us know how we can order copies when we can.
    :cheers:

    I've sent it to a couple of agents, but I think I'm going to put it on Amazon as a "print on demand" book. What that means is that it gets printed when someone orders one. I can buy them at a reduced price and sell them directly, or I get my profit paid by Amazon in a couple of months.

    It would be nice to have someone publish it for me, and I got great feedback on it, but I hate to wait so long, lose my rights, and make less on royalties. A lot of people are saying this is the way to do it, so it just might be pretty soon that it's available.

    I can probably get them to do a book signing at Thunder Mountain H-D. Great idea!

    That is a great idea!!
    Any idea on cost?
    When you have something more definite let us know, I'd like a couple of copies for gifts.
    Colorado Show & Swap isn't to far off.
