The diary format of Off Yer Bike! vividly brings to life the author’s skirmishes with gossipmongers, mutant dogs, village bobbies, drunken boars, scrumpy dens, flatulent horses, evangelists, crank-ups, sky bums, bog snorkellers, necropolis naturalists, all sorts of publife – and a mullet.
You’ll find a sharp ear for dialogue, a sense of comedy and an eye for the curious. It all goes to reveal that just off the roaring main roads, there’s still a leisurely, low-decibel Britain to be explored and enjoyed.
It will leave you wanting more.
