In the summer of 2014 Russell travelled to America and rode his Triumph Bonneville 3000 miles through California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. This vivid account of that road trip, seen through a motorbiker’s eyes, is filled with exquisite descriptions of the landscape he rides through and encounters with some of the colourful characters he meets along the way.
As the miles pass, he draws us into the journey down long hot dusty roads in the heat of the desert and through winding mountain passes, and reflects on why America has fascinated him for so many years.
An evocative and at times, very funny book, it weaves an almost lyrical tale and is a must-read for any traveller planning a similar trip through this vast and beautiful country.
