Publisher's Summary

Imagine cycling from England to India—an 8,500-mile epic journey, before GPS, social media, or cell phones. You’re traveling alone through the mystical East as borders slam shut; you confront wild animals, sexual predators and a deep cultural divide.

Amazon Number One Best Seller

This is the riveting true story of a young man’s solo bicycle odyssey: freezing in the Anatolian mountains of Turkey, confounded by butterflies in the empty Iranian desert, passing through the rubble of a coup in Kandahar, Afghanistan, and surviving dire illness in Pakistan's Indus valley. His journey ends in the heart of the subcontinent, having glimpsed true freedom. This is an account of humankind’s essential goodness, of trusting unseen hands that can steer us from disaster, and of learning that the way out is through.

Exhilarating, eye opening and encouraging!

This is the unbelievable story of the unflinching determination to not only bike from the UK to India but also to remain a student of the world and open to life’s curves, lessons and taunts. I was moved to tears, smiles and laughs while listening to the audiobook. You’ll love this! I highly recommend 👏 I want more from the author!
