Customer Reviews

A closeup look at the real America

Read this book. It draws you in because it tells you something you don't know and never thought about on just about every page. When most of us travel, we go to a specific destination, and we go there on an airplane or on an Interstate. More than anything I've read in years, this book reminds me of how much of America exists on the back roads, and of how little of it I've actually seen in my years of travel throughout the country.

All The Way To Lincoln Way: A Coast To Coast Bicycle Odyssey

A wonderful book by a determined rider and insightful writer. Bill really knows how to engage the people and capture the sites he encounters along the way. He brings them to life with a great combination of words and photos. Best of all, Bill makes you feel like you were along for the ride.

Where to next?

Not only Bill's adventure, but the people, the history, the nostalgia, the landscape, are all captured in Bill's journal. The photos are fabulous! This is one of the best cycling adventures I have read because it is about the adventure, not the ride.
