Nevada Rally Paul Clipper

There are motorcycle events every weekend, but truly epic events only happen on the rare occasion. The Nevada Rally was such an event. Planned and executed by Franco Acerbis and his Acerbis Adventure team, the Nevada Rally swept into the Silver State in 1993 and created a sensation that is still talked about today. This Kindle book is the story of the three years of the Nevada Rally. Originally covered extensively in Trail Rider magazine, this compilation is a combination of new material, reprints from the magazine and photos taken at the event. Each year of the rally is given a chapter in the book, as seen through the eyes of the author, who participated in the rally each year; two years working for the organization and the third year as a racer."Seeing the event from three different vantage points in three different years was a rare treat," claims Paul Clipper, a 25 year veteran of Trail Rider magazine and lifelong off-road enthusiast. "Never before-or since-have I been able to feel so immersed in a race. In the end, it was, just as Franco envisioned, one huge family of like-minded people brought together to experience every human emotion imaginable in one non-stop week of activity in the Nevada desert."This book is intended to serve as a retrospective on the 20th anniversary of the first Nevada Rally in 1993, as well as a salute to the efforts of Acerbis Adventure and Franco Acerbis, who had the vision to see what a great event he was creating, and the strength to pull it off. The Nevada Rally was truly the American Adventure, and this eBook will be an entertaining read for offroad racing enthusiasts everywhere.
