Quitting your job and leaving everything behind to cycle across the country without training sounds crazy, right? Not for a young couple who left New York with no more than four bags to bike across America while sleeping in churches, fire departments and bike shops.
This book will teach you:
- How they followed the Transamerica Bicycle Trail and
- Why they decided to leave it.
- Why they had to spend one night in jail.
- Why cycling 3,500 miles over two mountain ranges, into prevailing winds, with 40 pounds of gear is not that difficult.
- How you can experience the beauty of the US by bicycle and
- What gear you need to survive along the way.
Written in diary form, Next Stop Pacific Ocean will put you in the shoes of a couple discovering the states of Virginia, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Arizona and California on their bikes.
