I think that Olivier's stories are much better because the bastard always seems to have a good story about a beautiful girl somewhere on the beach or in the desert. Because, after all, who's interested in things like trike flying unless it involves beautiful women on beaches or in the desert? Anyone? (MW don't answer that one.)
On the other hand Mike is a truly gifted writer and his 'clean' ('clean' in terms of girls, but not in terms of trying anything anyone gives him on a plate) writing style will surely be put in one of the books about the Adventure afterwards. His style is in the 'Very Entertaining Reading' category. Also, Mike's English is much better. The only words Olivier knows in English are the one's he can use to make a pretty girl's eyes shine or to get a visa at the border of a 3d World country.
On second thoughts, I don't know who is better. I think they should put both of their stories into one book afterwards and call it "Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n' Roll". (Rock 'n' Roll being the experience of flying a trike at 2:30pm every day because you only woke up at 1:30pm because of the other two things.)
M & O, we love the stories!
(Damn, still haven't answered the debate of who is the better scribe! Damn!)
