Lois on the Loose by Lois Pryce


Lois Pryce bails out on her job at the BBC to ride a dirt bike from Alaska to Argentina. In Lois on the Loose, she tells the story of the ride with a good-humored, funny style. It's a quick read, and a fun story. Her matter-of-fact way of just keeping on regardless of obstacles may lead you to underestimate just how tough she had to be to complete the ride. ***+
Click on the title to visit Pryce's website; when I did, I learned that she has since ridden through Africa, and has a book out on that trip, too.
