Essex-Dakar 'Hunter on Ducati' fundraising poster by Ralph Steadman.
No full textIn 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)
Two Donkeys and a Bridge
No full textOriginally copyrighted by Nord-Süd Verlag in 1972. This revised edition first published in Great Britain in 1983 by Andersen Press Ltd. The back cover speaks of this revised edition of one of Ralph Steadman's early children's books, a timely and wry fable. Two boys, each with a donkey, meet each other at the large river that has separated their peoples for a long time. The two conceive the idea of building a bridge, and their respective villages take up the idea vigorously. After the bridge is built and separated, a quarrel arises, and now the bridge is covered in barbed wire. The two boys meet elsewhere along the river and maintain a good relationship. They promise, when they grow up, to tear away the barbed wire and avoid petty quarrels. Steadman's delightful cartoon style animates the book. Not the worst of his offerings is on the cover: the two donkeys kiss, and there is a big red heart between them.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)Original language: gerFirst editionRalph Steadma
