Mark Beaumont - The Man Who Cycled the Americas

The Man Who Cycled the Americas is an epic. Cycling on his own, without any support team around him, Scotsman Mark Beaumont completed an astonishing feat of endurance. From the US’s northwestern tip to Chile and Tierra del Fuego, he cycled 15,000 miles, climbing Mount McKinley in Alaska and Aconcagua in Argentina (the highest peaks in North and South America) en route, and making his way through a series of fascinating adventures and tremendously diverse cultures. With his trademark humour and self-deprecation, Mark tells the story of this extraordinary journey. No doubt his latest adventure, a trip to the Arctic in a rowing boat, will be the inspiration for another book. Perhaps we shall hear a first draft at Lennoxlove.
