Man in the Saddle

Rate this book
Deadhorse to Ushuaia—an epic journey on many long distance riders’ bucket lists. But few would contemplate tackling that ride on a vintage 1975 Moto Guzzi. The author’s choice of motorcycle is as unique as his interactions with the people and history he finds along the way. This is not the typical account of that route across the Americas, but one which is as uncommon as the rider, the Dutch print journalist Paul van Hooff—the Man in the Saddle.

English Edition, Translated by Nienke Hatog from the Dutch, Man in het Zadel

Ik heb ontzettend genoten van dit boek. Normaal lees ik niet zo snel door een boek. Maar dit boek had ik snel uitgelezen. Uiteraard omdat ik het heel leuk vind. Ik vond het zo’n leuk boek dat ik hem ook cadeau heb gegeven aan een vriend. Billen wat is billen waar is billen ja ja dank je wel < de laatste zin is een opmerking van mijn vrouw 🤣

Rubbish. Managed to read to Chapter 29, with difficulty. If I wanted to read about sex or politics I would have read something else.
Don't waste your time or money.

Heerlijk avonturen boek. Soms lijkt het te mooi om waar te zijn, maar van Hooff lijkt nergens te willen pochen met z'n avontuur.

Amazing story written in a gripping style. Can't wait for his next book (From here to Tokyo) to be published in English.
