A review by jonnyrwhit
Around the World by Bike by Alastair Humphreys

adventurous lighthearted slow-paced

2.75

The first half of the book was as slow and as tedious as cycling up a large incline and took me various false starts to actually get going. 
However the second part of the book became much more interesting, the cultures and landscapes differed and the observations and comments of the journey were much more intriguing. 
There were a few heartfelt moments, and I'm glad I finished the book, however the book didn't leave a taste for adventure, travel or even extreme physical and mental challenges, something I would expect from a book of this ilk.
