After many months of waiting - Author Adam Allan,B.S.A. today has finally released his book -Shock The Monkey - Facing The World's Deadliest Virus."

Here's what he had to say:

"It  may shock you. It may anger you. It may enrage you. But it also may enlighten, encourage and inspire.

"It" is my new book -Shock The Monkey - Facing The World's Deadliest Virus.

For the past several months I've been sharing excerpts and preview chapters from it.

If you've missed them. No worries. Because today you can have the whole enchilada.

Yes,that's right. I AM releasing Shock The Monkey today.

But don't go stampeding to your favorite book seller to pick it up.

Because it won't be there. It's only available through this link.

And Shock The monkey is 100% free. I don't ask for your email,entice you with a recycled "free gift", or ask you to "follow me" on social media.

                  "He who follows others ceases to follow truth."

                                            - Krishnamurti -

That said, I do have a youtube channel. Subscribing optional.

A word of warning: Shock The Monkey is not an easy read. It tilts at all of our pre-conceived windmills. To encourage you to think about why you have those preconceptions. And how they determine the course of your life.

If your mind is only open to reinforcement of what's already in it -

Shock the Monkey is sssso not for you.

Otherwise - let free thought rein.

And give the monkey a bananna.

Your Fellow Human,


Adam Allan B.S.A".

Bikepacking France with Christopher Strong the Bicycle Gourmet




Christopher Strong Bicycle Gourmet Backpacking is something old that's been "refurbished" into something new. 

The old is what DA BG has been doing for the past zillion and a half years. "Tasting the land and the people as well as the food and wine."

Little did I know, until recently, that all my fab adventures gliding down sun dappled French country roads was: BIKEPACKING.

Honored(in dementia ) to be one of the founding fathers of Bikepacking. Even thought I wasn't aware then I was doing it.

But, as you well know, marketing reins in our material World's constant grab for your wallet. And, what could be easier(and more profitable) than pasting a trendy new label on an old activity?

And so "camping with a bicycle" has morphed into "Bikepacking."

With, as you would expect, countless varieties of "made for bikepacking" cycles. And all the (not wallet friendly) gear that you must have to enjoy you BP adventure to the max.

However, you don't need any franklins to groove and (bien sur) thrill to DA BG's (unconsciously) Bikepacking adventures. Because all you need to do is... Click Here.

Adam Allan BSA - Who is He? And Why Should We Care?



Two valid questions. But only one worth considering. I'll  explain why shortly.

But first, for those readers who have no idea who this guy is, Adam Allan is a (new to me) Author who has been posting online for the past year.

Ocassionally He's been sharing excerpts from his forthcoming book -Shock The Monkey. Like this one.

To say that Mr. Allan's take on life is "unconventional" is a gross understatement.

For example:  He shreds  the self-help gurus in "The Myth of Self-Awareness.

 He explains why belief is dangerous In "Belief - Dangerous Fairytale.

He even has some "wake up and smell the coffee" words for Pope Francis in "The Shocked Pope." Proving beyond the hint of a shadow of a doubt that for him -no cow is sacred.

And that is exactly why we should "care" about Adam Allan BSA. Because he is presenting radically new points of view. Encouraging us to think about our lives and actions from a different perspective. Thus giving us the chance to "see the person behind the person in the mirror."

Bottom Line: "Who" Adam Allan is - is irrelevant. What he has to say is more than worthy of our attention.

To reverse a song lyric you're all familiar with: "It's the Song - not the Singer." (Apologies to Mick Jagger.)
