Education & Reference Transport & Engineering Sport & Recreation
Adventure Riding Techniques by Greg Baker and Robert Wicks is the hardcover bible for riders ready to trade asphalt for Africa trails, packed with 2009-era insight into bike prep, navigation and survival. Over 150 detailed illustrations walk you through sand recovery, river crossings and roadside repairs, making this visual guide as practical in the garage as it is inspirational on the couch.
The handbook balances engineering know-how with real-world travel stories, so commuters, budding Dakar dreamers and seasoned ADV vets all find something to level-up their skills. From choosing panniers to reading desert tracks, every page targets the core challenges of long-haul motorcycling without drifting into textbook dryness.
This copy is in very good shape, tight spine and crisp pages, and has lived in a smoke-free home since new. Grab the illustrated first edition while it lasts and start planning that epic two-wheeled escape.
