The narrative goes beyond the hardships Tom faced, focusing on the brutally honest thoughts of a teenager pushing himself to the limit. Covering everything from coping with new cultures and dealing with extreme boredom to living with ridiculous tan lines, the light-hearted nature and humour of the book makes this an easy read which will appeal to a wide audience..Laying bare his emotions and youthful naivety with the aim of inspiring others to push for their own personal goals, Tom provides an insight into why he took on this challenge. Whether it makes readers laugh, cry or start riding a bike into the sunset, this book is sure to resonate, motivate and amaze.

Just to give a little more background.   Tom is a local lad from "Between the Commons".   He went to Hornsby House School and then to Emanuel, and is currently studying at Loughborough University.  His cycle raised over £65,000 for charity in 2015 - Carneys Community, Cure EB (formerly Sohana Research Fund) and Prostate Cancer UK.

This book is a book of mind over matter, resilience and grit. A truly inspiring recount of a young man determined to accomplish his mission.
I highly recommend it to those parents who want to inspire their teenagers to think bigger and bolder.
My 10yrs old son has just finished it and has been left very inspired for sure!
