In Search of #6 is the story of the trials and trails of a man, a best friend, two bicycles, three states, four dispersed campsites, five tires, seven post-prandial naps, twenty-one dozen eggs, 1,100 miles, 15,000 vertical feet, and the search for a single kiss.

It is a tale of love, friendship, lactic acid, Achilles' Tendons, mistaken identities, false promises, broken dreams, large mountains, pungent flatulence, Heterosexual Life Partnership, childhood reminiscence, Umberto Eco, overused comic ploys, and considerable merriment. In Search of #6 is read by the author and includes audio interludes recorded during the course of the trip itself.

Prepare to hit the road. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wish there was more, and you'll certainly think twice about eating more than four eggs a day.
