Great thread! Always looking for good bike reads.
I second Barbara Savage's "Miles from Nowhere." One of the best books on cycyling that I've read. Also "Where the Pavement Ends" by Erika Warmbrunn is good.

Hey Snappy - you are really lucky to live in NZ (I'm assuming you do). I would love to emigrate but have an inert boyfriend who has no interest in leaving Blighty! :rolleyes: I just got the Saddled at Sea book and it's actually mostly about her journey out to NZ on a ship rather than cycling around it (still good fun tho). Her website says the book about cycling around NZ is out in spring so will have to wait a bit more for that.Quote:
Hetty - thanks for the nudge about Josie Dew - I'm a massive fan of her books, so witty and fun to read - and I've just been on her site and see she has a new one out! Yay! And it covers New Zealand. Yay!
Hetty,
Ooh, another book on the way - brilliant! I now have two books to look forward to!
I'm only here until the end of the year now, I'm afraid, and then return to Blighty for good - and go immediately from late Spring to the start of Winter (again) overnight! :(
I'm treating myself to a turbo trainer when I get home though, so that'll be something to look forward to!
Sorry, going off thread.
