My friend Ted Simon, author of “Jupiter’s Travels” and several other great books, is getting married. Or may have already gotten married. He and his Ukrainian bride planned to be wed in Ukraine this spring.
Ted also turns 79 tomorrow, which makes him the world’s youngest 79-year-old.
I had the pleasure of meeting the future Mrs. Simon (I believe her name is Lida) at the 2008 BMW Motorcycle Owners of America International Rally in Gillette, Wyo. while she was visiting the U.S. and traveling with Ted.
Ted has ridden motorcycles around the world twice – once in the 1970s when he was a young man and again nine years ago when he was 70. An expatriate Brit, Ted lives in northern California.
