From the icy roads of Alaska to the sunbaked trails of Africa, Across Continents on Two Wheels takes you into the heart of global motorcycle travel. This immersive narrative weaves together true stories of adventure riders who have journeyed across deserts, mountains, rainforests, and borders-facing breakdowns, bribes, monsoons, and moments of sublime freedom. Each chapter brings you into a different region of the world, highlighting not only the practical challenges of long-distance riding, but the transformative mindset it cultivates.Packed with firsthand accounts, planning strategies, gear recommendations, and border-crossing advice, this book is both an inspiring travelogue and a comprehensive guide for anyone dreaming of taking their motorcycle around the world. Whether you’re planning your first cross-country ride or simply want to live vicariously from your armchair, this is a tribute to the open road, the resilience of riders, and the global community that unites us on two wheels.
