Matt Stabile’s team over at TheExpeditioner.com has done it. I was skeptical when they announced this spring that they planned to put together and publish a book of “intrepid tales of awesomeness from the open road” by the end of the year. I stand humbled.

Not only is the final product being released Dec. 8, but there’s an open-invite party to celebrate. Man, wish I were a bit closer to NYC right now.

Congrats, Matt et al.!

    This is really exciting news, especially since a few Matador editors and U students are among the contributors. I’ll be out of town so I won’t be able to make the party, but it’s definitely cause for celebration.

    Woot! Now I know what I’m getting everyone for Christmas.

    As one of the contributors I’m psyched!
