Reviews
Stunningly honest, Lone Rider is going to raise eyebrows. This extraordinary story is hard-hitting . . . It's going to challenge and surprise every reader., An eye-opening account of one of adventure motorcycling's most enjoyable and inspiring stories. If there's only one adventure biking book you read this year, make it this one., Elspeth's journey is a stunning read, but it's the companionship and sense she will never be able to fully convey those years of her early 20s that hits you hardest . . . the disconnection she feels after the trip - combined with a travelling love story as heartbreaking as it is real - means this is essential reading if you've ever been on, or have planned, a road trip.

Synopsis
In 1982, at the age of just twenty-three and halfway through her architecture studies, Elspeth Beard left her family and friends in London and set off on a 35,000-mile solo adventure around the world on her 1974 BMW R60/6.Reeling from a recent breakup and with only limited savings from her pub job, a tent, a few clothes and some tools, all packed on the back of her bike, she was determined to prove herself. She had ridden bikes since her teens and was well travelled. But nothing could prepare her for what lay ahead.When she returned to London nearly two and a half years later she was stones lighter and decades wiser. She'd ridden through unforgiving landscapes and countries ravaged by war, witnessed civil uprisings that forced her to fake documents, and fended off sexual attacks, biker gangs and corrupt police convinced she was trafficking drugs. She'd survived life-threatening illnesses, personal loss and brutal accidents that had left permanent scars and a black hole in her memory. And she'd fallen in love with two very different men.In an age before email, the internet, mobile phones, satnavs and, in some parts of the world, readily available and reliable maps, Elspeth achieved something that would still seem remarkable today. Told with honesty and wit, this is the extraordinary and moving story of a unique and life-changing adventure., In 1982, at the age of just twenty-three, Elspeth Beard left behind her family and friends in London and set off on a 35,000-mile solo adventure around the world on her motorbike.
