Just over a decade ago, seven young Englishmen put together a plan to
journey around the world on motorcycles. The ingredients were just
right. They had no real experience, no money and absolutely no idea of
what they were getting into. What could be more perfect?

A small number of truck oriented writers have made names for themselves
but usually in combination with their photography. Occasionally a movie
about trucks makes the big screen, but not as rule based on a best
selling book. However, all that might be about to change.

After you accumulate a few years in the truck driving business you
realize that you probably never took enough pictures of the places you
have been and things you have seen on the road. Well, it’s too late
now. But thanks to some mostly “B” grade movie makers in years past a
lot of that ancient history was captured as background in flicks like
Convoy, White Line Fever, They Drive by Night and the great Movin’ On
series starting Claude Akins.

Challenging world records is a favorite pastime of those possessed of
the competitive spirit. And sometimes strange circumstances surround
those challenges that are as interesting as the tales behind the record
breaking events themselves.

Okay, I’ll admit what I know about music you could write on the head of
a pin. But I do know what I like in music which is a totally different
matter. My preference is for country, but not that cookie cutter stuff
from singers that all look and sound alike, but sort of a 1950’s style
where you understand the words and talk about trucking from the soul.
And I really like a gospel flavor when it’s well done.
