I like fish out of water stories. The Steve Dancy Tales is about a New Yorker trying to survive the Wild West and Bridge Across the Ocean tells the story of New Hampshire bicycle entrepreneurs doing the deal of a lifetime in Taiwan.
Intellectual property thieves try to ruin the dream, but the real challenge is bringing the deal and a love relationship to fruition in a culture completely foreign to Yankees from New England. Bridge Across the Ocean delves deeply into the cycling sub-culture and presents a distinct perception of life and countryside when experienced from the saddle of a bicycle .
Will a love of cycling be enough to bridge the gap between American custom bike craftsmen and Taiwanese mass producers? Read the book to find out.
