After a high sometimes downs follows must read book

After last weekend's Euphoria suppose it was bound to happen these last few days have been feeling a bit down I think what started it was, thinking about Bikeathon then wondering would I be able to take part because of my arms, they seem to be taking an eternity to heal I know its only three weeks, but have been so looking forward to taking part in this ride, suppose will have to wait and see, I am really hoping that I will be OK there is another six weeks to go but will be well gutted if I can't take part.

Went into Croydon to W H Smiths to pick up The Man Who Cycled The World I purchased it online £5.59 but arranged to have it delivered to my localW H Smiths at no extra cost, I have just started reading it, I am not a big reader but it reminds of another book I read which was called Call of The Wild this book is an excellent read this another Scott who decides he wants to experience what life would be like to live in the wilds of Alaska, definitely worth looking out for.

  3. I'm not a reader of books but it's such an easy read even though there are over 500 pages. I've still not finished it but it gives so much more detail to his ride that the documentary didn't give. If you want a copy of the Man Who Cycled the World documentary, send me you address on Facebook and I'll post it to you.
