Iceland Serow Saga

Big Adventures on a Small Motorbike

Beschreibung

- A compelling tale of heart-stopping adventure and immersion in nature - Searching for solitude in the wilderness, Helen Lloyd went to Iceland via the Faroe Islands for the summer of 2018. She found freedom and adventure riding her old Yamaha Serow motorbike, tackling the rough trails and deep river crossings for which Iceland is renowned. The Land of Ice and Fire is more than crevasse-ridden glaciers and lava-spewing volcanoes. Despite killer sheep, cold winds and driving rain, Iceland's steaming hot pools, strong coffee and generous people melt snow and warm hearts. With illuminating descriptions, Helen Lloyd weaves the history and traditions of the country and the colourful characters from the sagas into her own riveting story, which she tells with typical humour and humility. A must-read for anyone interested in Iceland or motorcycle travel ‘A lovely description of Iceland and the joys and perils of lone biking.’ - Ted Simon ‘Absolutely fascinating.’ - Sam Manicom
