Beyond Bucharest: A Motorcycle Adventure

http://www.timbuktu-publishing.co.uk What would possess an otherwise sane Grandmother to forsake her knitting and ride a powerful motorcycle to the Black Sea and back, tackling the worst roads, most atrocious weather and most dangerous driving on the way? 'Beyond Bucharest: Motorcycle Adventure Travel' is the latest book from Bob Goddard (see: http://www.timbuktu-publishing.co.uk ) which tells the tale of his and wife Viv's extraordinary 5000-mile journey on two motorbikes through the European storms which killed 62 people and left thousands more homeless. It sounded simple enough: emulate their screen heroes Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman by riding motorbikes to Eastern Europe in aid of a children's charity. But Bob & Viv Goddard were nervous grandparents, not fit youngsters on sponsored bikes with a back-up crew. Their ride to Bucharest and beyond, across twelve countries and sixteen border crossings, through storm, flood and tempest, was almost a challenge too far... Ride with them along the Road To Hell, into the City of Nightmares and through the Valley of Death. Join them for an inadvertent night in a brothel! Laugh with them at the absurdities of life on the road. Hop on board for the adventure of a lifetime... and hold on tight! For details visit: http://www.timbuktu-publishing.co.uk
