THE FULL ENGLISH by Mike Carden

Cycling from the Dorset coast to Northumbria via Glastonbury, Ludlow, the Peak District, and the Yorkshire Dales, the author indulges his passion for the history of England through its castles, abbeys and ancient towns. Covering 650 miles of England and twelve counties, he struggles heroically with Mid-life Crisis, Man-Flu and also with Scott, a bike with a serious attitude problem.

DOWNHILL ALL THE WAY by Edward Enfield

Fed up with questions about what he was going to do when he retired, Edward decided to get on his bicycle and ride from Le Havre to the Mediterranean. He explored the mystery of what an ouvrier eats for lunch, and was barred from a swimming pool because his trunks were too decent. Through the Rhône and down to Provence and the Camargue, Enfield is witty and informative as always.

DAWDLING BY THE DANUBE by Edward Enfield

So, having only been to Germany once before to do National Service, Edward Enfield sets off on his latest cycling trip, carrying few preconceptions but plenty of wit. Determining the route he should take from recommendations scrawled on a napkin, he starts by following the ‘Romantic Street’ along the banks of the Danube from Passau to Vienna, taking in castles, churches and good food along the way.
