Paperback. Condición: Very Good. 317 pages. In a bold attempt to combat inevitable dotage, Roy Sinclair set off to discov er the world (more correctly, selected parts of it) by pedal power. In doing so, frequently accompanied by his Japanese partner, he experienced people of differ ent cultures and languages in a way that might…otherwise have been impossible. I nspired by a former New Zealand prime minister, he set off to ride the length of Japan (the first New Zealander to do so) in an effort to have a World Peace Bel l gifted to his country. A meeting with a Wanaka winemaker, whose great grandfat her held an early record for the Lands End to John o'Groats journey on a penny f arthing, had Roy and his partner setting off to pedal the length of Britain. And on the whim of a pub yarn, he pedalled off to a famous monastery in the French Chartreuse mountains to discover the source of a centuries-old liver-punishing l iqueur. Sometimes opinionated and more often unashamedly biased, his world disco vered by pedal power is one we all will want to journey through. His compelling stories of overseas bicycle rides are woven amongst those of the country he love s most - New Zealand. Includes 20 maps of the routes travelled.
