Hi,

The full title of the two options would be:

  1. Exploring the Dragon: A Mountain Unicycling Odyssey in Bhutan
  2. Into the Thunder Dragon: A Mountain Unicycling Odyssey in Bhutan

Let me know what you think.

“Riding on Thunder Dragon: A Mountain Unicycling Odyssey in Bhutan”

I’m with the others who’d rather you dropped the “the”.

(remember them, “The The?” I have “Infected” on vinyl somewhere…)

Mambo Number 2.

Kris, I like #2 the best.

Might I suggest two others though?

How about “Taming the Thunder Dragon” or possibly “Riding the Thunder Dragon”?

Kind of like an Asian-Western flick.

Considering that Enter the Dragon (a Bruce Lee movie) is probably the most famous martial arts
movie ever made, I guess that any title with dragons in an exotic Asian country may invoke
comparisons like that.

Cheers,

Chasing the dragon is also a term for using heroin/opium.:frowning:
