Um þessa rafbók
From the author of the bestselling 500 Mile Walkies, this is the true story of one man and his bike ...
It was a cold, bleak, British summer morning when intrepid Mark set out to travel the seventeen-hundred miles to Lapland on his bicycle. The land of reindeer nomads and the Midnight Sun had him under its spell.
Suitably equipped with a new locknut A and pivot bolt B, a compass, a pair of sunglasses with only one lens and a Norwegian phrasebook, he was soon to discover the joys of Central Milton Keynes, win a marathon he never ran in Brassington, become stranded on the Yorkshire Dales, pick raspberries in Northumbria and finally catch a train from Newcastle - back to London!
His dreams of obtaining a genuine reindeer hatstand were shattered forever!

Um höfundinn
Mark Wallington was born in Swanage in Dorset in 1953. He worked as a comedy scriptwriter for many years with Dick Fiddy, before publishing 500 Mile Walkies in 1986, an account of a hike around the South West Coastal Path with a London mongrel. This was followed by Boogie up the River and by two novels, The Missing Postman and Happy Birthday Shakespeare both of which he adapted for TV. The Day Job, the story of his time as a gardener in London, followed in 2005. In 2012 he published The Uke of Wallington, an account of his journey round Britain's open mics with his ukulele. He has a new book out in October 2013, The Auto Biography, the story of the cars in his life, starting with the Ford Pop which brought him home from the maternity ward.
