Summary
It took Lawrence Bransby and his son, Gareth, three journeys into Central Asia before they were able to ride the legendary Bartang Pass. But it's another pass that becomes the focus of this story - Matts Pass in southern Tajikistan - and a motorcycle gets abandoned deep in the Pamir Mountains after father and son push the limits of their bodies and bikes just one step too far.
These two have traveled on motorcycles across four continents over the years - Africa, Asia, and Europe - and shared many adventures together. But this trip turned out to be somewhat different. Never before - across Africa, into the Russian taigia, or in the Western Sahara - have they had to abandon a bike and walk out....
A Pass Too Far is the story of their second and third journeys into Central Asia. (The account of the first can be found in The Wakhan Corridor.) Award-winning author Lawrence Bransby has become well known for his adventure motorcycle travelogues, the many articles published in motorcycle travel magazines, and the illustrated talks he has given at the Overland Magazine adventure bike events. If you have enjoyed There Are No Fat People in Morocco, Venture in Russia, The Wakhan Corridor, or By Motorcycle Through Vietnam, you will love this book.

Outstanding
I’ll start by saying it really is an outstanding Book
Lawrence puts his heart and soul into his trips and narrates them equally ,you feel like you know him well very quickly and recounts the incredible trips as if you are along for the ride
The content is exceptionably good and as someone who rides with his own Son loved it
