It's all here: Money, sex, politics, geography, history, cigars, and, of course, Fidel.

A true story of a single male, with his gaudy red BMW motorcycle, on his three-month, 7,000 mile Cuban ramble back in 1996. His faithful 'moto' exposed him to a revealing cross section of society from farmers to fisherman, to 'habaneros' chafing under Castro's faltering rule. Christopher Baker explores the tensions simmering below the surface of a beautiful island gripped by poverty and poised for political transition.
