Although this has nothing to do with scooters, it's a wonderful book about a woman's bike ride through Africa:
Red Tape and White Knuckles - Lois Pryce

Thanks Steve - hadn't seen that before. Having grown up in South Africa I really admire her for doing that Africa trip on her own. Not sure I would be so brave....

I've read Lois on the Loose too and thoroughly enjoyed it, however for me Red Tape and White Knuckles was by far the better book. She's had some amazing adventures.

I think I'll read both when I've finished reading American sniper. A couple of relatives gave me some Amazon/kindle gift cards for Christmas and I've still got over £40 left on my account.

Just finished, and enjoyed, Lois on the loose (am I being mean in being glad that the bitch she met on route crashed her bike and knocked her teeth out - nah!) and have just downloaded Red tape and white knuckles.
