Have you ever wondered what it would be like to chuck it all in and do something completely different? One night over a few too many beers, Sam Manicom decided to ride a motorcycle the length of Africa. A mad idea? Or a world of opportunity opening up? There was just one obstacle; Sam didn’t know how to ride a motorcycle, and if he was going to make it through the Sahara before the months of intense summer heat hit, he had just 3 months to learn and get across Europe to Egypt. Into Africa is a story that takes you exploring an incredible continent. The phrase ‘Every day an Adventure’ was coined for this 22,000 mile journey.
Travelling southwards through fourteen African countries between Cairo and Cape Town, this is the story of an enlightening, yet demanding journey. Full of the mishaps, dust, heat and the thrill of overlanding, you’ll sweat with him, but you’ll also laugh as he describes the highs that Africa and its people place in front of him. Some countries were torn by civil war, with the politics of others placing challenges in his way. Bribery and corruption hit with additional tests, but Sam soon found that these aspects did not drown out the joy and the beauty of the land. He quickly finds that though Africa is as challenging a continent to travel as he’d expected, the ever-changing scenery, the historical surprises and the humour of the people are the most powerful aspects. His motorcycle gives him the freedom to explore that he’d hoped for, and listeners will soon find that this is a book filled with the magic of motorcycle travel. Taking side turnings and dirt roads he gets off the beaten track through some of the world’s most dramatic landscapes, to places where little has changed for hundreds of years.
Into Africa is the 1st book in the series of 4 books.
8 years around the world. 6 continents. 2 wheels.
Sam has been described as 'One of the foremost and most readable adventure motorcyclists.' We hope you enjoy this audiobook.
