En savoir plus sur le livre
In the spring of 1974 tennis professional Eugene Cantin set out on what was to become a 2000-mile bike trip through Scotland. Filled with false confidence gained from his only previous long-distance bike trip-23 miles around Point Reyes, California-Cantin quickly was educated about the realities of broken spokes, burst tubes, sore knees, the need for repair equipment and the joys of cycling through as beautiful a country as Scotland. Cantin recounts his adventures in an entertaining blend of people and places he meets along the way, the history of a few of the mighty castles he visits and the devilishly human antics of his bicycle during the 53-day journey. Vivid detail throughout A Man, A Bike, Along Through Scotland will aid any future cyclist intent on touring the ancient country of Scotland.
