Mark Fargo is a solo motorcycle rider. He didn't start riding until he was sixty years old, avoiding all the traps of being a younger rider, seeking thrills through speed, large gatherings, alcohol and riding in large groups. His travels take him all over the United States seeking those great two lane roads or less traveled highways and byways. His photographer, especially his latest book, Motorcycle Haiku 4, Noir et Blanc, has captured some startling images of Yosemite and California and many other states.His Haiku poetry matches the moment perfectly and his travel log additions to those pictures and poetry is revealing to his attention for detail.
Mark is very aware of the dangers on the road with its careless drivers, those addicted to tech and having to constantly adjust to weather conditions.He has decided to forgo the usual mindset of not messing with your rides appearance by plastering his windshield with yellow reflective tape and with his amber running lights, is keeping people on notice he's in the neighborhood. Not having a car for the past six years makes him realize that motorcycling is a privilege not an entitlement. It's why he also chooses to wear a helmet in EVERY state not just his native California, which created the law that all motorcycle riders must wear a helmet in 1992. This law has saved thousands of lives over the years but you can't control poor behavior and actions of some riders.
Averaging over 20,000 miles a year on his reliable Yamaha Super Tenere, a 1200 cc dual sport bike, has made his travels safe and practically maintenance free. Please enjoy this fourth book in an ongoing Motorcycle Haiku series. Enjoy the ride.
