Book Synopsis
Extraordinary Places by Bicycle is a rich and rewarding free-wheeling journey for anyone with a dash of true adventure in their blood. Hugh and Pauline Symonds have shared the highs and lows of truly remarkable two-wheel odysseys to the wildest and most beautiful corners of the planet. Through the rugged Pamirs, across the deserts of Australia, exploring the lesser known byways of Mexico, China, New Zealand and Georgia, these are authentic accounts of great charm and humour -- with an occasional moment of drama and peril thrown in for good measure. The many photographs are absolutely stunning and are inserted into the text where they have most impact. The background to this intrepid couple's everyday world at home is also woven into the journey in a very candid way: a life threatening health scare and other ups and downs of family dramas make this a satisfying autobiographical experience as well as an outstanding series of genuine adventures.
