About the book
Pedalling through Cameroon, covering thousands of kilometres through villages, cities, and wilderness, he encounters the raw realities of daily life, from the warmth of roadside encounters to the harsh challenges of poverty and political turmoil. This is travel writing that refuses to romanticise. With a musician's eye for rhythm and detail, the narrative weaves together vivid observations of landscape and culture with honest reflections on what it means to be an outsider looking in. It's an unconventional travelogue that challenges readers to see beyond tourist trails and confront the complexities of a region rarely explored on two wheels.
