NEW Rick 'Super Hunky' Sieman Book
« on: September 04, 2011, 09:37:34 pm »
Hi all,
Rick's not far off finishing a new book that promises to be another classic. This one's all fiction so it might even be more entertaining than Monkey Butt. (If that's possible)
Watch this space for details of a release date..........

Where the f*ck have you been young Tony? Welcome back ;D,
Hunks new book will have to be a gem to be better than Monkey Butt. My copy is dog eared from lending it to friends and my re-reading it over and over throughout the years. I must email him for another copy.

Thanks Firko. I wandered off and played with modern stuff and road bikes for a bit, but the call of one of my old SP's down the back of the shed brought me back.  ::)

I'm sure the new book (called The Last Ride) will be worth a read. Not sure about an exact release date, but I'll post something here as soon as I hear of anything.

Keep an eye out for a heap of dumb questions from me. I'm putting another SP/DR together.  ;)

Hey Slakey, if he's got a good rear guard and side covers, I'm interested.
Maybe send me a pm.

Good to have you back Tony.

And good to see you ambushing your own thread - the spirit of OzVMX is still alive and well.  :D

It's done!!!  ;D
Here's the rundown:
My new book, THE LAST RIDE, is at now out. It's fiction and starts in 1969, when an 18-year-old kid just out of high school gets a chance to ride his Yamaha 250 DT1 from Pennsylvania to Los Angeles … all off-road.  His adventures are truly amazing. The book then jumps 40+ years where the same person, now in his 60s, wants to get that old Yamaha back in his possession and return it home by riding it all off-road across the country again.  The book is $15 plus $2.75 for mail anywhere in the US (or $5 for Priority Rush mail) and for more information, the email is:  [email protected]  Paypal address:  [email protected]

Can't wait to get my hands on it!!

I'm just checking on postage to Oz, but I think it will ned to go in one of those envelopes that's $13.45.
We're also taking about getting a bunch of copies over here to save on that postage cost. Not sure it's woth it, but we'll see.

I've ordered and paid for my copy of Hunky's new book this morning which prompted an enjoyable email exchange with my journalistic hero Mr Hunky. I can't wait to read it ;D.

The book is $15 plus $2.75 for mail anywhere in the US (or $5 for Priority Rush mail) and for more information, the email is:  [email protected]  Paypal address:  [email protected]
The shipping from the USA to Australia  is $9.60 US so added to the $15 makes it $24.60 US total when paying by PayPal.

;D There's two types of people that make up this world Monte, word people and those who find numbers interesting. I'm a word guy and not much good with numbers ;D. The shipping has been duly adjusted!
