No smartphones, no GPS, no Google maps, and not a single ounce of common sense.\nDead horses, armed border guards and furious Slavs stand in the way. Join Andy on his battered old Suzuki GS1000G as we cross Europe, and ride together through the Iron Curtain to reach the very edge of Asia. Filled with adventure and humour, poignant and accidentally informative, this true-life story tells of travel in an era long gone, when we read paper maps like pirates on the high seas, and friends were made and lost along roads less travelled.\nA Fast Bike to Byzantium is a hilarious true-life travelogue full of interesting characters, uncomfortable moments, terrible choices, and British humour that will appeal to lovers of Bill Bryson, Douglas Adams, and David Sedaris.\n\nAll the books in the Petrolhead Travelogue series can be read in any order.\n\nPraise for “A Fast Bike to Byzantium”\n One of the better motorcycle travel books I've read.\n It's a fabulous book.\n Andy's writing draws you in.\n A great fast paced book\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0BRGXLKK9\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.B0BRGXLKK9.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Wareing, Andy C\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
