In 2008, Mark Beaumont smashed the world record for cycling around
the world, by an astonishing 81 days. His race against the clock
took him through the toughest terrain and the most demanding of
conditions. In 2009, Mark set out on his second ultra-endurance
challenge. And this one would involve some very big mountains. The
Man Who Cycled the Americas tells the story of a 15,000 mile
expedition that once again broke the barriers of human achievement.
To pedal the longest mountain range on the planet, solo and
unsupported, presented its own unique difficulties. But no man had
ever previously summited the continents' two highest peaks, Mt
McKinley in Alaska and Aconcagua in Argentina, in the same climbing
season, let alone cycling between them. Oh, and Mark had never even
been up Ben Nevis before. Full of his trademark charm, warmth and
fascination with seeing the world at the pace of a bicycle, Mark
Beaumont's second book is a testament to his love of adventure, his
joy of taking on tough mental and physical feats, and offers a
thrilling trip through the diverse cultures of the Americas.
