The Road Gets Better from Here

Více o knize

With virtually no experience and absolutely no support, Adrian Scott rides a basic stock motorbike 20,000 kms across 9 countries in 3 months to fulfill a lifelong dream. At every turn, he is adopted by a vast array of characters each with stories to tell and who, extraordinarily, expect nothing in return; tough Siberian truck drivers, frontier road workers, border guards, desperate villagers, drug-addled soldiers and crazy modern-day traders, each insisting that he join them in their homes to share their lives and most of their provisions. It is these encounters which provide such a rich and compelling subtext to his extraordinary journey. --from back cover
