Lois Pryce : Lois on the Loose before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Lois on the Loose:

Lois expresses herself in a way that puts an emphasis on the humor and on the people she meets along the way. The observations of her companions and the locals made the story as rich as the ride itself. My own experience with motorcycle travel has lead me to the belief that itrsquo;s all about the people and Lois rides with an open mind and an open heart expecting the best from people and receiving it, more often that not. Do not miss "Red Tape and White Knuckles" an account of her ride through .0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. One of the best moto journalist in the worldBy Bill BoggsOne of the best moto journalist in the world. Writing is superb. Insights are keen and the narrative very descriptive in terms of painting a picture of things as they unfold. Exciting and fast paced book, no dull I saw, this and that. People and events literally come to life in the narrative.On another note it killed any desire I have to visit these places. Corruption, lack of services and generally unpleasant things that need not be experienced to be appreciated. Thank you Lois for the work, saved me going there.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good read for moto fiendsBy Just BrianNicely done. Enjoyed the journey right along with her. I found myself wondering on many occasions why she selected the gear, motorcycle, and apparel that she did but it was her ride. I was frustrated at times with her traveling companion that eventually crashed. I hope that she fully recovered and don't wish her any I'll will but I'm quite certain that I'd have left her on the side of the road. I wouldn't tolerate her harsh behavior for even one day. Having ridden for more than 40 years, I can sympathize with her battling the cross winds on the last leg of her trip. Wind is a rider's enemy.

Lois Pryce was working at the BBC in , firmly set on the career track. But unbeknownst to her coworkers, Lois was leading a parallel life as well, that of a biker babe with an overwhelming case of wanderlust, one that couldnt be satisfied by a weekend holiday. Her days in a cubicle were numbered, and it wasnt long before she was back on her bike and looking for adventure. Armed only with the Spanish words for caution and cheese, Lois set off to conquer America---both Americas, actually. Starting in Alaska and working her way down the Pacific Coast, she rode through snow, desert, and everything in between to reach the southernmost tip of . Lois tackled every type of fellow biker imaginable and endured everything the continents could throw at her with quick thinking and a vibrant sense of humor. Whether bribing her way through Central American borders, spending the night in a Mexican brothel, or crashing her bike in Patagonia, Loiss bright, funny travelogue will charm anyone who longs for adventure and a stretch of the open road.

About the AuthorLois Pryce is a British travel author, freelance journalist, speaker and presenter. She is also a cofounder/curator of the Adventure Travel Film Festival. Torn between the career paths of two illustrious relatives, , the Nobel Prize Winner in Physics and his granddaughter, Olivia Newton-John, Lois abandoned her interest in Quantum Theory and at the age of sixteen left school and spent the next couple of years as a carrot-picker, painter decorator and failing an audition as a kiss-o-gram before finding her home in rock n roll. After various jobs in record shops and record labels she ended up as a product manager for the BBC. But by 2003, Lois had grown weary of the daily grind in jargon-infested London media-land, so she jacked in her job at the Beeb to ride 20,000 miles from Alaska to the tip of South America astride her 225cc Yamaha trail bike. Upon her return she wrote the book of this trip, Lois on the Loose, which was published in the USA and the UK and translated into several languages. Itchy wheels struck again and it wasnt long before she was plotting another adventure. In October 2006 she set off once more, this time to ride the length of Africa from London to , crossing the Sahara through Algeria and Niger and continuing down the west coast through the Congo and Angola to South Africa. Four months and ten thousand miles later she rolled into Cape Town just about in one piece, having tackled Kalashnikov-wielding soldiers and Angolan minefields along the way. Her book of this awesome adventure, Red Tape White Knuckles was published in 2008. Since returning from Africa she has written and presented Ladies on the Loose, a DVD guide to worldwide motorcycle travel from the female perspective, featuring an impressive cast of women adventure riders from around the globe. She is also a contributing editor to Overland Journal, a columnist for Outrider Journal and a co-founder of The Adventure Travel Film Festival which takes place in the USA and the UK each year. When shes not on the road she lives on a Dutch barge in London with her motorcycle adventurer husband, Austin Vince with whom she has just returned from a coast-to-coast ride across the USA in a Ural sidecar outfit. The rest of her hours are spent pickin n grinning as the banjo player in all-girl London bluegrass band, The Jolenes.
