About this deal

So etwas kann befreiend sein, aber es macht es auch schwierig, wieder ins normale Leben einzutauchen. Registered as a charity in England and Wales charity no: 1147607 and in Scotland charity no: SC042541. Absolutely can’t fathom all of the hardships Jenny Graham went through to cycle around the world in a record breaking time (125 days! I guess that's why she is touring off the back of its publication, to talk more about her adventure (as she finds that more enjoyable than writing about them).

This would sound like it would be difficult to pull off but Graham does so in a way that will keep the reader engaged and entertained. Brimming with wonderful observations and reflections, this takes pride of place on the adventure bookshelf. It'll change your view of 'suffering on a bike' while simultaneously fuelling a desire to challenge yourself. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. With infectious wit and honesty, Jenny recounts her friendships with strangers and the myriad different cultures she comes across that gave her a new perspective on the world.In 2018, amateur cyclist Jenny Graham left family and friends behind in Scotland to become the fastest woman to cycle around the world.

They are frank, entertaining and invariably analysed by Jenny as battles with her own conscience (for riding away). It launches next week and Jenny is also doing a book tour, starting on 12th April, with talks (and rides) happening at various locations across the UK. If you think for one second that this is some sort of commercialized setup like so many other endurance-based books, think again! As independent experts we are able to offer a range of impartial advice, guides, reviews, inspiration and routes to help you experience the joy of cycling.

As the book comes full circle and you gaze upon the pictures of the journey and read the humbling epilogue, you have to take a breath and marvel at what she was able to accomplish. Jenny broke the record, but it was what she discovered about herself and the world around her that truly changed her.
