Next year, 2024 is the 50th Anniversary of the publication of Robert Pirsig’s seminal work. That rhetorical, biographical and philosophical novel is woven around the real motorcycle trip as Bob & son Chris and John & Sylvia Sutherland headed out west across the US from Minneapolis on 8th July (1968).
If you follow ZMMQuality on Facebook, you can re-live that journey day by day starting from today 8th July. And if you do, you can contribute ideas and support for 50th Anniversary events next year. Dates for your diary are:
-
-
- Weekend 6/7th and Monday 8th July 2024 in Minneapolis, Mn
- Weekend 13/14th July 2024 in Bozeman, Mt
-
Whether you can participate in the road-trip or not, follow and look out for details of events at ZMMQuality.
