Bike race? No challenge...

Bat country; drug use: noted.

Sad truth? U.S. knows...

Ralph Steadman's wild line (and he was not even there!)

    Well done, Kendall. I've not read it. Now I have(?), lol.

  • I've never heard of this book before but your Haiku-review makes me wanna read it!

    It's my first time about hearing of this book and it sort of reminds me of the cannonball car event. Like one where people try to race across the United States as fast as possible without making any stops and without getting stopped by police.
