Description
Adrian Scott's epic journey begins in the bleak Siberian city of Magadan, where he sets out to ride 20,000km across nine countries on a basic motorbike. His adventure takes him through treacherous landscapes and encounters with an array of characters who share their lives and stories with him.
From the icy rapids of Stalin's Road of Bones to the breathtaking Pamirs, Adrian faces numerous challenges as he battles against the elements and his own physical limitations. Along the way, he is adopted by those he meets, each with their own tales to tell and generosity to share.
This remarkable journey provides a rich and compelling subtext to Adrian's adventure, one that is both humbling and inspiring. With its unique blend of travelogue and personal narrative, "The Road Gets Better from Here" is a captivating account of one man's quest for self-discovery in some of the world's most unforgiving landscapes.
