A few days after his 23rd birthday, Sam left his home in Cornwall to cycle around the world. His solo journey would take him over 36,000 miles, from France to Singapore, across Australia, and from Alaska to Argentina. Before he reached the half-way point, he had been arrested in China, horsewhipped in Mongolia and given much-needed water by nomads in the Gobi Desert. This book is a story about the challenges he faced, but it is also a story about the kindness and generosity of the people he met along the way.
