I love adventure stories and this was another great one. To follow Tim’s journey of discovery of the world by bike was inspiring but written in a really accessible and fun way. Thoroughly enjoyed reading this whilst on holiday and I donated it to the hosts of our safari camp in Tanzania for them to read and then put in their camp library.

An honest, funny and inspiring page turner that makes you realise if you have dream however outlandish you can make it happen.
I was left wanting to hit the road again and leave all my cares behind..... sorry kids

Total inspiration to just get out there and see the world!!

Just read it. You'll love it. It's inspired me to go and see the world for myself. You don't have to be a cyclist to enjoy it

easy reading to help you escape

Great and easy read, throughly enjoyed reading about Tim’s adventures. I recently moved to reading U.K. too, good to see the biggest town in U.K. get some positive PR.
