So I've published my e-book, Detour, and now I've got to get it out there. The summer isn't the best time to do this since people are on holidays, and not in front of their computers where they can see my tweets and Concussion Talk Facebook posts. I've reached out to people and organizations and I'll reach ...

My e-book, Detour, is now available here: https://leanpub.com/detour Thank you for all of your support!

I will soon be selling my ebook, Detour. The first part of this book is first about a 2002, 66-day bike trip across Canada that I completed with two friends after graduating from university.

I'm sure there are many physiological and neurological reasons why improvements would take this long, then again, ...
