Synopsis

What happens when an unfit bloke in his forties cycles over a thousand miles through Britain on a £25 bike with no support crew. Nick should have told his cycling pal Adam before the start of the trip that he wasn’t really prepared. It was probably obvious from the start, but many years later he mans up and admits his crass stupidity. If you’re thinking about cycling Lands End to John O'Groats and you’re not super-fit, then this book is for you. Even if you're not, come along for the ride. It might deter you, it may inspire you, but at least you’ll know what to expect, and there are a few laughs along the way, mostly at Nick’s expense. Nick and Adam planned their trip down to the last detail, if only Nick had bought the right bike, got fit and properly prepared things would have been so much easier. This book will inform and guide anyone considering a long cycling trip, especially the born again riders out there, to tackle their own holiday of a lifetime.Besides, where else are you going to learn about belly flapping, the art of wearing Lycra, snot wipes and why we should bring back cycling capes?
