About this listen

 Mark and Ellie are cycling around the world. Join their adventure as they share weekly diary updates from the road. Bears, typhoons, camels drinking each other's wee, and lots of crisps; this podcast is much more than a cycling diary. The ups are hilly, the lows are swampy, but for every puncture there's a patch.2025 Social Sciences Travel Writing & Commentary
