Bikers' Bookshelf

By Ian Mutch

Challenging the established wisdom of using adventure bikes for adventurous trips Ian Mutch sets out to prove the improbable, that the Harley-Davidson is the ideal Africa overlander. Joining a party of serious BMW GS-mounted riders Mutch crashes, bashes and slews his own path across the Sahara and into sub-Saharan Mali, bumping into his co-travellers with enough frequency to take the Micky out of them. A light-hearted and self deprecating volume of fast-paced wit allied to blistering incompetence.
