Simply the best read
Very simply, I would recommend this book to anyone interested in adventure travel. I picked it up and didn't stop reading until I'd finished the last page. The next day I read it again.
Brilliant
An amazing journey by bicycle
This book is a must for anyone who likes exciting travel literature. Two cousins decide to undertake a cycling journey to the "Centre of the Earth" - the furthest place on the earth from the sea, which happens to be in a remote part of Western China. Starting at the coast in Bangladesh, they go on a journey which carries them across the Himalayas into China, experiencing almost every kind of weather imaginable.
The journey is made even more incredible by the fact that they travel with no support, carrying all their gear.
My favourite travel literature book - nothing I've read in the 8 years since I first picked it up gives the same sense of adventure .
