review 1: I have to admit that I was very intrigued by a man that decided to bicycle to the lowest depression in 6 continents. I am not even that big of a fan. I mean I ride the. Of course, but to travel on one? Heck no. I loved this book. The author provides a lot of information but it does not overwhelm you. He is also pretty funny. As I was reading this book I realized that the story was about the journey not about the getting there. He met some amazing people in his journeys. I loved his stories in Africa and Asia. They were my favorite because of the people that he met. Although I must say that I am not too keen on traveling to Ciaro anytime soon. He did have his trials for sure but the end result was wonderful. Any person that enjoys travel and embracing local cul... moreture should read this book. Actually anyone wanting a good story should read this book. I am so glad that I did. I am actually sad that it is over. I loved traveling alongside.
review 2: This is an excellent book and a really enjoyable read. The author is a good writer with an entertaining sense of humor. He decides to bike to six of the lowest points on earth and his writings of his adventures are fun to read. I thought the first four trips were very interesting but my interest started to wane during the fifth trip and I skimmed from there to the end. I kind of wish he would have stopped after trip #4. Still a very worthwhile read, though. less
