Travelogue about three bicycle tours through the south of the USA
The book describes three bicycle journeys through the south of the USA of a married couple around the fifties and tells winking and self-ironic the experienced thereby.
Travelogue about two bike tours in the southwest of the USA
The big fat one rides ahead sweating and panting with his nose in the wind and the small skinny one with her e-bike – mostly loaded like a pack mule – smiling behind. Thus begins the narrative of our first journeys and applies equally to those described here. We would like to report to you, dear reader, in this little booklet about these journeys – carried out in 2019 – and hope to be able to take you away into our world, that this booklet entertains you, occasionally makes you smile, that you suffer and marvel with us and perhaps even motivates one or the other reader to do the same.
