A Fast Bike to North Cape
Andy C Wareing, author
The year—1989. The destination—Nordkapp, the northernmost part of Scandinavia, deep inside the Arctic Circle.
Andy has swapped his battered old Suzuki for a spanking new Kawasaki.GPZ1000RX. Jump on back and let us ride together as we cross fjords, frozen tundra and high mountain passes to reach distant North Cape. Witty, poignant and accidentally informative, the story tells of travel in an era long gone, a time before smartphones and Google, when we read paper maps like pirates on the high seas, and friends were made and lost along the road less traveled.
Can Andy prevail and survive rough seas, violent storms, scary reindeers and a ridiculous amount of Belgian beer to reach his destination.
