One of My Favorites

This book is amazing. It described a wonderful adventure of a man fulfilling his dream despite many risks.The author faced many obstacles including weather, aggressive drivers, bears and yet perservered to the end while managing to have fun, learn many things, and meet a wide variety of people. He wrote about it from a laptop computer which he carried with him. Anyone who noticed any mistakes in grammar doesn't deserve to read this book. I recommend that you get it as soon as you can and pass to anyone who loves to read, travel or ride a bicycle.

Funny!

I enjoyed Against the Wind. It was witty, short and a real page-turner.

This is an incredible adventure.

The author, Marty Basch, rode his bicycle from Maine to Alaska. He encountered a grizzly bear with an incredible ending, and even had the Mounties find his stolen bicycle helmet. Great stuff
