Mud, Sweat and Gears by Ellie Bennett
As Ellies fiftieth birthday approaches, her ambitions of a steady income, a successful career and an ascent of Everest seem as far away as ever. So when her best friend Mick suggests a cycle from Lands End to John oGroats, she agrees. But as they sample local beer along the way, she wonders if theyll ever make it to the finish line
'great fun and surprisingly informative' Mark Beaumont, author of The Man Who Cycled the World 'Ellie Bennett takes on the End-to-End with plentiful supplies of humour and beer.' Josie Dew 'Ellie Bennett is funny, she can talk the rear wheel off a Dawes three-speed and she loves a decent pint. I'd tag along with her any day' -- Oz Clarke 'Likeable account of a journey by bike from Land's End to John-o'-Groat's via plenty of pubs.' The Bookseller 'What a great laugh out loud read this book is!! It will cheer up even the dullest of days... A terrific read for any cycle fan!!' -- Julie Knowles Waterstones' Bookseller 'Well worth a read for travel and bike enthusiasts' Scotcampus 'This enjoyable account of their End-to-End route, split by days, and a 'stats' list stating miles cycled and pints of beer consumed - one wonders how they'll make it to their destination at all. Definitely a fun read for anyone who believes cycling is a very nice way to complete a sightseeing (and eating) adventure rather than a race against the clock' London Cyclist Magazine
