Tom Anderson, Chair of the Welsh Academy, the National Society of Writers in Wales and best-selling author of 'Chasing Dean and The Actaeon Tide':
'John Chick's 10,000k Challenge has all the elements needed for a belter of a travel book. There's a real sense of dropping into the unknown, a noble mission and a feat of human energy needed to bring the journey off. John's narrative style is full of humour as well as warm and pertinent observations about the people and landscapes he encounters. It's a trip across the personal and physical spaces in which the travellers challenge invariably plays out, atmospheric, alive and unpredictable. A great read!'
