Summary

'At 16,000 miles, it was the world's longest road: a road on which travelers faced being kidnapped and murdered by Colombian drug barons, buried under Peruvian avalanches, drowned by the Guatemalan rainy season, fleeced by eight-year-old Ecuadorian border touts, driven mad by blackflies in the Yukon, eaten by Alaskan grizzlies and, worst of all, limited to a glass of Chardonnay a day in California. The Pan-American Highway. It sounded brilliant. The next day, I went out to buy every book that I could find on it. And found that there weren't any. Then its about time I wrote one, I thought. Biker Geoff Hill heads off into the sunset, this time aboard a trusty Triumph. Join him as he faces the perils and pitfalls of the Pan-American Highway, from Chile to Alaska, via Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, El Salvador, Mexico and the Yukon. If you enjoyed this book, you might also enjoy Geoff Hills other motorbike adventure books: Way to Go: Delhi to Belfast on a Royal Enfield and Route 66 on a Harley Davidson; Oz: Around Australia on a Triumph; and In Clancy's Boots: The Greatest Ever Round-the-World Motorbike Adventure
