On October 6, 1973 Ted Simon knew there was no heading back. He packed up his 500cc Triumph Tiger in the pouring rain and said goodbye to London. Over four years he rode 64,000 mls round the world. Breakdowns, revolutions, battle, a spell in prison and a Californian commune had been all portion of his encounter, which was coloured variously by utter despair and unimaginable joy. He was treated like a spy, a god, a pleasant stranger and a attention. The incredible trip became a journey into his personal soul, and for many others – including the bikers Charley Boorman and Ewan McGregor – it is a pure motivation. Rupert Degas, ‘the most versatile of narrators’ (The Times), captures all of the thrills and spills of Simon’s encounter and the classic appeal of his composing.
