Sinossi

Earthquakes, guns, bears, rattlesnakes and tortoises - oh, and digital toilets… take a tour of the globe with five epic bicycle adventures:

  • Tierra Del Fuego to Buenos Aires through the wilds of Patagonia: ever wondered what it’s like to try cycling into a wind that is, literally, strong enough to blow you off your feet?
  • Canada to Mexico: billed as the world’s toughest mountain bike tour, follow the US continental divide along the crest of the Rocky Mountains dodging rogue bears and rattlesnakes on the way.
  • St Malo to Budapest: follow four of Europe’s greatest rivers, the Loire, Moselle, Rhine and Danube to the capital of the old Hapsburg empire. Just for fun, try it on a recumbent tricycle.
  • Hokkaido and Kyushu: tour the extremities of Japan, wooden castles, earthquakes, volcanoes and very strange toilets.
  • Bonus material: A journal of a quick jaunt from Land’s End to John O’Groats, adventure in our own backyard.

Whether you’re a seasoned traveller, just thinking of planning your first long distance trip on a bicycle or an armchair voyager who prefers to take your adventure with a cup of tea and a soft cushion, this collection of cycling tales will make you laugh, make you wince, and perhaps inspire you to take off on an adventure of your own…
