Discovery Road
Andy Brown, Tim Garratt, edited by Dan Hiscocks


The inspiring story of the first people to ride mountain bikes across the vast deserts of Australia, the dangerous bushlands of Africa, and the mountains of South America Fed up and disillusioned with corporate life, Andy persuaded Tim to leave his job and cycle around the world--convinced there could be more to life. Their goal was to become the first  people to ride mountain bikes unsupported across the three southern continents and, in doing so, to raise money for the charity Intermediate Technology.
An inspirational tale of self-discovery, Discovery Road is full of adventure, conflict, danger and a multitude of colourful characters. All told with refreshing honesty and great humour.
