Steve and the Tiger Riding the Americas

Description

After a career in the Army spanning three decades Steve Stewart decided it was time to move on and fulfil a lifelong dream. And so he set off with a basic plan and only one aim: to ride his Triumph Tiger the length of the Americas, from the most southerly town on the continent to the most northerly, visiting lots of places in-between. Ride along with them from the windswept plains of Patagonia through the arid heat of New Mexico to the ice roads and sub-zero temperatures of Alaska. They battled the elements all of which seemed to conspire against them. And, if Mother Nature wasn't difficult enough, there were the added problems of border bureaucracy, mechanical issues, multiple police encounters, muggers, injuries, family illness and, sadly, bereavement. Live the dream, or the sometimes scary nightmare, of what life is like on the road. Meet some of the characters along the way - the good, the bad and the ugly. Full of the joys of motorcycling - with gravel tracks the length of the UK, roads of perfect tarmac and with more bends than you could ever dream of. Nobody said it would be easy; that's why it's called, Adventure Riding! Live the dream!
