From Sunday Times bestseller Miles Morland comes a brilliant, life-affirming and audacious travel memoir. Having never ridden a motorbike at night, in rain, or on motorways, not knowing the difference between a carburettor and a spark plug, Miles Morland set out to ride across newly post-communist Europe to Istanbul. Somehow, he survived gales in France, rioting miners in Romania, homicidal truck drivers, and floods in Turkey. Since then, he has ridden the equivalent of twice round the world across five continents. He still doesn't know what a carburettor is. This isn't a book about biking.
