When three friends set off on a 900-mile trip to explore Britain, using an out of date map to guide them, the scene is set for a wayward adventure. Along the way they visited numerous country pubs, went in search of the remaining Beatles, discovered an ancient hideaway used by Scottish clans, and survived a storm in the Highlands. Each time they got lost they were helped by a variety of kind and quirky characters.One cyclist didn't own a bike, but luckily, his brother was working out of town and had one in his garage.Painted racing green, with wide wheels and a robust frame, it was far from perfect for such a trip. But it was free! If you like adventure travel books, then you'll enjoy this tale about three ordinary men,proving that extraordinary things can happen, just when you least expect it.For one of the cyclists, the journey would change his life forever.
