An epic motorbike ride from the UK through Europe, Asia and
Mongolia to the outer reaches of Siberia. A book about the healing
power of travel and motorcycling through an unknown landscape.
Fully illustrated with the photographs the author took while on the
journey. When his wife died tragically, Ian Rogers decided that to
ride from London to Magadan, in Russia, would be his road to
healing and recovery. Completing the Road of Bones on a motorcycle
would be an escape route from the helplessness he had felt as he
had nursed his wife through the cancer that he would in the end
lose her to. It took him away from his work, his family, his normal
life and gave him the time to grieve and put his world in
perspective. No windows, no automatic transmission, no metal box
protection and absolutely no safety belt, motorcycling fills your
senses. Wind, rain, sunshine, smells and with your eyes always on
the prize be it the idiot road users in built up areas or mile upon
mile of breath-taking Monglian wilderness. Join the author for a
journey of discovery through 15 countries, 11 time zones and 30,000
kilometres of Europe, Central Asia and the Far East. An adventure
story as well as a homage to the author's wife, this is diary of a
journey to places people do not normally think of visiting, or know
anything about. 'It's good to have an end to journey towards; but
it is the journey that matters in the end.' Ursula Le Guin, author.
