Discovery Road

I am going to cycle around the world. For something so major the words came out surprisingly easily. Time is ticking away. I have to do something now before my spirit is sucked out of me entirely. Discovery Road tells the story of Tim Garratt and Andy Brown s attempt to be the first people to mountain bike unsupported across the three southern continents in one year. They cross the vast deserts of Australia, the dangerous bush lands of Africa and finally the awesome Andes of South America, the continent where they had been assured they would meet their doom. It is a fast-moving, inspirational tale of self-discovery, full of adventure, conflict, humour, danger and a multitude of colourful characters. Much more than a travelogue, it proves that ordinary people can chase great dreams and has acted as inspiration for many searching for their adventure.
