A Great Bicycle Experiment

By Aaron Sheppard

It took 10,000 kilometres and 12 months to transport Aaron Sheppard by bicycle through 20 countries in an adventure that was started to quench the author's curiosity of the world off the beaten track. The trip began with the hustle and bustle and ease of Western Europe and moved to the still somewhat chaotic East, where church meets mosque and tradition fights for its existence against moderm consumptive aspirations... then to the Middle East and all its history, where kindness couldn't help but have one questioning taught versions of history, dispelling myths about the people of those lands.... And into the Balkans whose recent past is soaked in violence while set against incredible beauty and friendliness that confuses even the best of travellers. Amongst it all are the characters, the people that habitated these lands as well as the people in passing that make the trip. Experiencing abundant kindness as the author cycled from one adventure to the next changed the way he saw the world.
