George Mahood sets off on an ambitious cycling journey from John o'Groats to Land's End, but there's a twist: he's woefully unprepared. With minimal training, dubious equipment, and questionable decision-making skills, what should be a triumphant adventure quickly descends into a comedy of errors across the length of Britain.
This is travel writing at its most honest and hilarious. Mahood's self-deprecating humour shines as he battles against the elements, his own limitations, and a series of increasingly absurd mishaps. From mechanical disasters to accommodation nightmares, every mile brings fresh challenges and laugh-out-loud moments. It's a refreshingly candid tale that proves you don't need to be an elite athlete to attempt epic journeys—just a good sense of humour and the ability to laugh at yourself.
