Product Description
From the authors of the bestselling Silk Riders comes the tale of their latest motorbike adventure, Backblocks America.
This time Jo, Gareth and their mates cross North America, from Christopher Columbus’ first landfall in the Bahamas to the extreme northwest of Alaska, via the Appalachians, the deep South, Mexico and the Rocky Mountains — with a cruise down the California coast to finish. Taking the back roads, they discover an America far from the bland and homogenous world of big cities and reality TV.
Jo and Gareth tell their story with customary wit and insight, and it’s packed full of entertaining tales of roadkill, racism, encounters with wildlife, history and good ol’ American hospitality.
