Julian Sayarer grew up riding a bicycle. Working as a bike courier
in London, he learned the world record for a circumnavigation by
bike had been broken, and that cycling into the sunset had been
bought by banks and big business. Determined to do things
differently, Julian set out to take back the record for the people.
Life Cycles is his story of that record, riding 110 miles every 24
hours for 6 months on only GBP8.84 a day - a route through jungles,
snow and 20 different countries. He found himself stranded without
money in the deserts of Kazakhstan, held up by insurrections in
northwest China, and sleeping under motorway bridges in America's
Deep South. Taken by life on the road and a spirit of adventure, he
loved every minute of it. A tale of excitement and world politics
by bicycle, travelling at 12mph, Julian found that the Tartars of
Central Asia aren't so different to the trailer families of
Louisiana. This book is a reminder that the world is out there -
and it's waiting for us.
