In 1982, at the age of just 23 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-traveled. But nothing could prepare her for what lay ahead.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 61
Most Australians have heard of the Boer War of 1899 to 1902 and of Harry 'Breaker' Morant, a figure who rivals Ned Kelly as an archetypal Australian folk hero. Born in England and emigrating to Queensland in 1883 in his early 20s, Morant was a charming but reckless man who established a reputation as a rider, polo player and writer. He submitted ballads to The Bulletin that were published under the name 'The Breaker' and counted Banjo Paterson as a friend.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 11
“Well, now I’m committed,” he thought to himself after telling a national TV game show audience that he wanted to ride a motorcycle to Mongolia with his winnings. He felt the fear that commitment always induced in him; he was hoping they might have edited that bit out. Commitments are something he tried to get as far away from as possible, the only other constants in his life being twenty-five years of financial prudence, travel and motorcycle obsession.So there he was, committed to going very, very far on a motorcycle with his meager prize money. Consequently, he spent a winter on eBay and a spring in the garage preparing his $1000 KLR 650 for an uncertain life on the road.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 166
This is the true story of Keith Banks, one of Queensland's most decorated police officers, and his journey into the drug scene as an undercover operative in the 1980s. In an era of corruption, often alone, with no backup, he and other undercover cops quickly learned to blend into the drug scene, smoking dope and drinking with targets, buying drugs and having dealers arrested. Very quickly, the lines were blurred between his identity as a police officer and the life he pretended to be part of.

Fantastic Book

Publisher's Summary
In 2001, martial arts-trained biker Glen Heggstad began a journey from California to the tip of South America on his motorcycle and made it as far as Colombia, where he was kidnapped by local rebels and held captive. Undeterred by more than a month of traumatic incarceration, the 'Striking Viking' finished his trip after being released. Three years later he set out into the world on his bike again, this time searching for truth on his own terms in a world that had become strangled by a climate of fear.
Starting his trip in Japan, he traveled through Siberia, Mongolia, Europe, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Africa, stopping in more than 30 countries to deliver his message of the real United States, as he knew it. Unique stories and gritty adventure fill this quest for new sights and insights amongst extreme temperatures, knee-deep mud, bureaucratic roadblocks, health problems, and loneliness.

A 'true' adventurer
I have heard several world motorcycle ride stories. But there ain't any thing like this one. The guy has actually gone to remotes areas, the actual rural areas of uh countries he has visited and understood the true spirit of each them. Hailing from one of the countries he has visited I know that not all that he has written is completely true but achievement so much as he has is PHENOMENAL. And the conclusion is a fantastic ending that comprehensively brings out what he has learnt during his journey. Few places it appeared it was rushed through such as Africa and India and some places a little boring but overall a very good book.

A must read for someone attempting a distance ride
What made the experience of listening to One More Day Everywhere the most enjoyable?
As someone who has ridden across borders, although not nearly to the same extent, I found his descriptions of the process, and of cycling very accurate.
Would you recommend One More Day Everywhere to your friends? Why or why not?
I would recommend it highly to someone that REALLY is going to do/ has done a long distance ride. It is superb prep for the hassles and paperwork you will experience. I would not necessarily recommend it to someone just looking for a travel book to take you away. There are not many descriptions of the people, culture, and foods. This book is more about the journey as an accomplishment. As a travel narrative it is 2 stars, as a distance motorcycle guide it is 5 stars.
Which scene was your favorite?
There are some good descriptions of his experiences in parts of Africa.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I listen, 2 hours at a time, when riding my bicycle ion the mornings.
Any additional comments?
Mr Heggstad is the real deal when it comes to motorcycle riding. A few of his martial arts analogies make one roll their eyes like that one friend we have that is into martial arts and talks too much about it. That being said he gives a superb and accurate glimpse into what to expect with your bike, what happens at border crossings, and the bureaucracy of it all. He is not a food lover and says as much and there aren't many vivid descriptions of people and the cultures he rides through. Its about a rider conquering and accomplishing a hard task. How to get from point a to point b. It is absolutely a must read for anyone thinking of doing the same.

The author loves him some himself.
Way too much fake flowery language and recreation of conversations of conversations that never happened. This book is purely to let the world know just how high of a regard the author holds himself. Insufferable bore. Check out Ted Simon, Sam Manicom, or Graham Field in that order instead.

Excellent tale of the road on 2 wheels!!
Loved this book!! As a fellow rider who's been reluctantly "removed" from riding for a number of years now (tends to happen when ya start a family, haha!). Glenn's tale of adventure on 2 wheels and helping us see the world thru his eyes and they the eyes of the people he meets was so exciting, made me feel like I was his travels with him! It's also refreshing to see just how kind people can be when you try to see the world thru THEIR eyes and vice versa. This was such fantastic book! Funny how I stumbled across this book just as I'm starting to think that my hyatis from riding is nearing its end, its definitely fanned the flames excitement on 2 wheels for me!!

Fascinating adventure. Well written and narrated
Great adventure! Well written and detailed. Would have preferred more in-trip logistics, planning details, and post trip resettlement info. This account could've used much less Kum Ba Yah we-are-the-world rhetoric, and repeatedly demonizing the US government got old. None of that diminishes the author's accomplishment. I'm a hardcore rider, but Glen is rider's rider! Salute!

Really enjoyed this book. I love travel books but unlike Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman's similar adventure, this is one man, doing it alone with no support crew. So much more respect for a man who can succeed on limited resources and his own wits.

Borish, arrogant author
What a disappointment. Written by an arrogant "author" and narrated in a boring, monotonous tone of voice. At times condescending, this book is seriously lacking any indepth encounters with people as the author's only concern appears to be getting from A to B as fast as possible. This type of travel requires humility. Something which is greatly lacking here.

Glen ventures into places that many would skip around because they're difficult. The people and places are vividly described and Glen has a way of reaching into the people he meets and is justly rewarded for his efforts. I have read a lot of travel books and rate this as one of the best.

What made the experience of listening to One More Day Everywhere the most enjoyable?
The book was very descriptive enabling you to imagine being in the actual places with Glen as he went through his daily trials. Glen Heggstad is a truly inspirational traveller with a true no fear approach.
What about John Morgan’s performance did you like?
John Morgan convinced me he was Glen . A comfortable voice that I could easily listen too.
