About this listen

“Well, now I’m committed,” he thought to himself after telling a national TV game show audience that he wanted to ride a motorcycle to Mongolia with his winnings. He felt the fear that commitment always induced in him; he was hoping they might have edited that bit out. Commitments are something he tried to get as far away from as possible, the only other constants in his life being twenty-five years of financial prudence, travel and motorcycle obsession.So there he was, committed to going very, very far on a motorcycle with his meager prize money. Consequently, he spent a winter on eBay and a spring in the garage preparing his $1000 KLR 650 for an uncertain life on the road. Armed with a cynical humor, a strong sense of direction, a vague sense of balance, and no sense of proportion, he embarked on a 15,000-mile solo motorcycle ride to see what would break first; bike, body, or budget. Leaving an indifferent existence in England behind he headed east, looking for purpose, a new life, and a new location to live it. He was in search of greener grass.

Really enjoyed the frank and brutally honest description of places and people encountered. As a time constrained tourer myself with a family to consider, i only get 2 week tours of Europes mountain ranges, but in another life what Graham is doing would be the dream

A view into what many people dream of doing

This is a great listen if you like the genre. It engaged me from the start even if I didn’t warm to Graham at the start (seemed a bit self obsessed). As it went on though, he and the story grew on me and I ended up looking forward to following the tail, which I did to the end. I thoroughly recommend this great adventure story, which is honest and informative, and made me want to get out and do it!

An enjoyable, real description of an adventure

Having just listened to Graham’s newest book, he mentions book review. It’s not really something I’ve done before but it seems fitting now. All the authors books are very well written, he takes you along with him and with him also narrating them it adds a big dose of authentic charm. Excellent books.

We all want greener grass.
