Jupiter's Travels. His first leg takes him to Italy, Sicily, and Tunis. Arabic is sheer gibberish to him as he crosses Libya and worries that he won't be allowed into Egypt. Then it's on to unfriendly Ethiopia where poverty has hardened every face.

A right rip rorting read about a four year long bike ride
During the lock in and workers take over of the Triumph motorcycle factory in the 1970s journalist Ted Simon set out to test a Triumph motorbike by riding it around the World. It is a great story (and its true) weather you are a biker or not.

An amazing precedent for those that followed
It's only 43 years since Ted Simon completed his trip around the world but this excellent description shows just how much the world has changed It's an important piece of modern history

It's a great book that I have been looking to replace one lent out years ago. I think, even if you're not a biker, its a book worth reading, full of travel stories/ anecdotes..

Jupiter's travels by Ted Simon
Have read this book three times over the years and as it is starting to look a bit tatty round the edges I have bought another. Great book well written.
