Our intrepid traveller sets off from London with next to no riding experience since gaining his biker's license, in the general direction of Greece, with Fiji, in the South Pacific, the ultimate aim and destination.
Later he finds himself once again on a bike riding through the unfamiliar, this time sub-Saharan Africa.
Bluestone Biker relates tales of these and other misadventures, and of a world both surprising and with not a little hope. The author tries to remember, within the pages of this book, that "No-one is interested in what you had for breakfast".
Bluestone Biker can be read any day of the year - in the heat of a baking summer's day, or on a rainy day in February at the Laurel Inn at Robin Hood's Bay.
