Description
Around Africa on My Bicycle by Riaan Manser is the remarkable true story of the first person to circumnavigate Africa by bicycle.
Setting out from Cape Town in 2003, Riaan Manser expected his journey to take a year. Instead, it became a two-year expedition covering more than 36,000 kilometres through 34 African countries. Along the way, he encountered vast deserts, challenging terrain, political instability, and dangerous situations, but also experienced extraordinary hospitality, generosity, and the rich diversity of the African continent.
Blending adventure, travel, and personal reflection, Around Africa on My Bicycle offers a fascinating account of endurance, determination, and discovery. It is an inspiring read for cycling enthusiasts, travellers, and anyone interested in Africa’s landscapes, cultures, and people.
