| Publisher Description: A true tale of a bicycle odyssey. Three unprepared individuals, an ex-sailor and world traveler, his younger brother, and an old college roommate, take a cross-country trip in 1976, enduring a simpler time made more complicated by a lack of modern conveniences we take for granted today, like GPS, cell phones, ATMs, and satellite radios. Riding 10-speeds, they ride east to west, uphill and against the wind. No spandex, no sag wagon, no helmets, no sense. A humorous, engaging, fun story that takes the reader through the Wild West as well as the '50s, '60s, and '70s, with many surprises along the way. Historic, interesting odd events, and near-death experiences, dot the challenging terrain of this epic journey. |
