Story
In 1982, at the age of just 23 and halfway through her architecture studies, Elspeth Beard left her family and friends in London and set off on a 35,000-mile solo adventure around the world on her 1974 BMW R60/6. Reeling from a recent breakup and with only limited savings from her pub job, a tent, a few clothes, and some tools, all packed on the back of her bike, she was determined to prove herself. She had ridden bikes since her teens and was well-traveled. But nothing could prepare her for what lay ahead.

This is a beautiful a story that many can relate to who have travelled solo on a motorcycle,thoroughly engaging story ,Elspeth Beards ability to describe many things which come to the reader and transcends us on a journey as though with her personally is wonderful,I was saddened when the story ended,as a BMW rider and traveller I stand in awe at her marvellous book,long live the lone rider👍
