Two blokes from Yorkshire ,England 1995 . Cycle into a 40degree New Delhi day ,east toward Kathmandu,Nepal and South East Asia ,Illegal border crossings, near death by :thugs ,knife bandits ,car ,cyclones and crocodile. After bicycles stolen , hitching ,walking and sailing . Busting guts on a sheep station .No Bullshit , No hype ,just how things really happened.And hopefully inspiring to potential travellers stuck in a rut doing the same same and turning to drink and worse at the weekends to compensate. Although dark and dangerous in places ,it’s told with Comedic ,philosophical undertones.

2.The Early Years (and how I survived) life in a northern town
This Episode paints a lil picture of where the journey began ,upstairs above a laundrette , and the need to find adventure from an early age . It touches on the rather rustic childhood I had in a rural town before moving closer to the bigger cities and the characters I encountered. From kids knocking me out with bricks to thugs trying to beat me ,to male strippers and a farmer called red vest . It’s probably easier just to listen .
