Description
A captivating account of the longest place-to-place cycling record in Britain, End to End is a beautifully written narrative that delves into the relentless physical and mental challenges involved. Paul Jones's journey from Land's End to John O' Groats is a compelling exploration of hope and ambition, courage, obsession, and joy.
The book meets cyclists who have attempted to break the record, including those who have achieved remarkable feats, such as Eileen Sheridan's under-three-day ride in 1954. It is a portrayal of the human spirit, of what happens when things go wrong and how hard it is to make them right.
A deeply honest and passionate book, End to End is a celebration of the fellowship of the road and the people who do extraordinary things. It is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever embarked on a journey, no matter how big or small.
