This Road I Ride: My incredible journey from novice to fastest woman to cycle the globe by Juliana Buhring
2.0
I love cycling and I love adventures so really expected to love this and leave with a burning desire to just do something incredible (as I did with Coasting).
I think part of the problem with circumnavigating the globe (and trying to do it very quickly) means you don't really see things or have time to appreciate local cultures etc and I think that combined with Julianas background led to some uncomfortable, slightly colonialist/privileged/western-centric sections that I thought detracted from the story of this amazing achievement.
