Keep your compass weird - a Norton motorcycle adventure
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
After years spent anchored in routine, Graham finds himself adrift
following the quiet death of his father and the unravelling of a life he
never meant to build. With only an old Norton motorcycle, a half-
finished map drawn by a lost friend, and a heart full of unasked
questions with a promise to his father, he sets out from Cornwall on a
meandering journey across Britain—from the wild edges of Cornwall
to the tip of the Scottish coast.
Along the way, Graham meets a cast of eccentric and kindred spirits: a
mechanic who seems to speak in riddles, a beekeeper who paints with
honeyed light, a mysterious woman named Luna who sees stories in
standing stones. As he rides, Graham begins to rediscover the freedom
of movement, the sacredness of landscapes, and the quiet magic of
shared silence.
Part road novel, part quiet reckoning, Keep Your Compass Weird is a
soulful exploration of grief, friendship and forgiveness, and the call of
the open road. It's a reminder that sometimes the most important
journeys aren’t the ones that chase destinations—but the ones that help
us come home to ourselves. A love letter to lost maps, late starts, and
the enduring hum of old engines.
