The Motorcycle & the Molecule is a comical insight into intentional communities, international travel and alternative styles of living. Mayan rulers, janky motorcycles and mischievous beavers all make appearances in a tale inspired by a solo research expedition through Central America. From a troubled community deep in the wilderness of Oregon to the Mayan ruins at Tikal, and from the beaches of Nicaragua to the jungles of Costa Rica, follow Dougie Lux along roads less traveled as he encounters an array of unforgettable characters, unconventional communities and uncomfortable ceremonies, all while leaving a trail of benevolent mischief sprinkled in his path. More than just a travel novel, The Motorcycle & the Molecule delves deep into the human experience and our desire for connection, reminding us that we are all beautifully flawed, masterpieces in progress.
