An Anthology of Early British Motorcycle Travel Literature
Collaborative book project in association with the International Journal of Motorcycle Studies (IJMS) and Riders for Health.
Along with a foreword by Steven E. Alford and Suzanne Ferriss, this volume contains three early twentieth-century British motorcycle travel narratives : Captain W. H. L. Watson’s Adventures of a Despatch Rider (1915), Lady Warren’s Through Algeria & Tunisia on a Motor-bicycle (1922) and C. K. Shepherd’s Across America by Motor-Cycle (1922). Interactive colour maps are available at :
Additionally, this publication follows a social enterprise model employed in a previous motorcycle travel project entitled Essex-Dakar with all profits helping support notable causes, in this case, Riders for Health.

Essex-Dakar 'Hunter on Ducati' fundraising poster by Ralph Steadman.
In 2005/06 Tim Fransen rode a motorcycle from Essex to The Gambia. This solo charity ride was called the Essex-Dakar an irreverent spoof of the much criticised Paris Dakar Rally. The project was successful raising £4,061 plus a Suzuki RV125 VanVan for SOS Children Villages and a further £1,023 for Riders for Health.
Although riding solo, collaboration was key to this project's success, one leading participant was artist Ralph Steadman. Steadman kindly penned the Essex-Dakar logo and provided a license to print one thousand Hunter on Ducati[1] fundraising posters.
[1] Hunter on Ducati was originally commissioned for Hunter S. Thompson’s legendary Ducati 900 Supersport road test Song of the Sausage Creature. (Thompson, H.S. (1995) Song of the Sausage Creature. Cycle World, March, pp.70-73)

In a series of essays published in 2013 and 2014 on capitaspower.com, political economist Tim Di Muzio explored the concept of ‘sabotage’ as it applies to capitalist power. I recently rediscovered these essays and was so impressed by them that I have reposted them here as a single piece.
About the author: Tim Di Muzio is a researcher at the University of Wollongong. He is the author of numerous books, including Debt as power, Carbon capitalism, and The 1% and the Rest of us
