About this listen

Who tries to ride deep into Iraq just to see if the news reports are accurate, ends up joining a street demonstration against someone else's government, or sticks their arm between the jaws of a wild mountain wolf-dog?

After the success of his first book, In Search of Greener Grass, Graham Field hits the road again with his bargain-basement KLR650, recording his experiences in his inimitable and revealingly honest diary style. The Caucasus region is often overlooked by travelers, but Graham may inadvertently be about to change all that.

A single pivotal event can transform any journey, and accepting rather than fighting that moment can have glorious consequences for the traveler. In this instant the result ensures a fantastic exploration of eastern Europe and beyond, the discovery of a hidden gem in Georgia, and meanderings that leave us all much richer.

Ultimately, Eureka is an almost accidental realization that we cannot control our mood on the road, but merely embracing it can be the most enlightening travel experience of all.

Another Gem

Another great read/Listen from Graham. This book packs in lots of great information for the budding or wanna be adventure bike traveller. A full and frank account of his travels and experiences whilst riding a trip of a lifetime. Very well written and narrated by the author himself which makes this book even more enjoyable. All in all an excellent book. Buy it, you won’t be disappointed. 👍🏻👍🏻

Enjoying every mile

Having enjoyed in search of greener grass, I was looking forward to Eureka, and it did not disappoint. Graham does make you feel that you
are with him on every mile of his journey.
For anyone thinking of taking off on a journey of discovery, this book
will inspire you to get out there.

Excellent, loved it....

I listen while I ride and have listened to every bike adventure book I can get my hands on. What a find to stumble across Graham’s audio books.
Anyone can relate and join in with Graham’s diarised writing style of his adventures. From the ‘RTW’ battle scared veteran to the enthusiast of planned adventure, be that in daydreams or reality.
Loved it Graham, thanks and can’t wait for the 3rd to be released on Audible.

Fabulous!

A great travelogue, if you are an adventure rider you will connect with this instantly. if you are any other traveller (even an armchair traveller), you cannot fail to be amused and motivated by Graham's account.
