The rollicking, true story of two men rekindling an old friendship after twenty years. Foolishly, they choose to reconnect over a hometown tradition that just happens to be the world's biggest bike ride: RAGBRAI. 500 miles of biking during the hottest week of the year - humidity 100%, bugs 1000% - seemed like the ideal way to "get to know you" again. Their plans are waylaid by a last-minute addition: an outrageous, mysterious sailor named Cheek. His presence is not only intrusive, but utterly disastrous.

From Cedar Rapids Gazette
Rumble Yell begins with the story of Bruns' training regimen in Las Vegas, where this novice rider learns a series of valuable-and hilarious-lessons, such as not to wear underwear with biking shorts and the proper way to look into a latrine while wearing a bike helmet.

Maarten Troost "Cruise Confidential is a deliciously addictive read, a blistering kiss-and-tell about the dysfunctional life working on cruise ships." - Doug Lansky, Travel Channel "The funniest travel book I've read in years." - Peter Mandel, author of My Ocean Liner "This is a really entertaining true tale by a guy who struggles through the bizarre world of cruise ship employment.
