A German Cyclist Goes USA - Roadside Stories Between Seattle And Key West (Part 1) Review
A German Cyclist Goes USA - Roadside Stories Between Seattle And Key West (Part 1) Overview
A German Bill Bryson…
…that’s how readers judged Hermann Plasa’s stories about his bicycle tours across the USA. 2005 he went to America for the first time: it was love at first sight. Between March 2007 and November 2010 he cycled through 21 U.S. states, covering approximately 10,500 miles.
After 25 years of cycling across Europe, the German had finally found his cycling paradise far away from home. After two short warm-up trips in 2005 (“Green Mountain Loop in Vermont”) and 2006 (“San Francisco Bay Trail”) he undertook his first Cross-Country-Tour from west to east in 2007, following the “Southern Tier” from San Diego, CA to St. Augustine, FL. Two years later he followed the Mississippi River Trail from the headwaters to the Gulf crossing the USA from north to south.
This book is about his third Cross-Country-Tour from Seattle, WA to Key West, FL. Being a German, more precisely a Bavarian from the town of Munich, Hermann Plasa tells his roadside stories from a refreshing and entertaining German (ah… Bavarian) point of view.
So saddle up in your sofa, hammock or favorite reading chair and accompany the German Bill Bryson on Part One, covering the North-West U.S. and the Canadian Wilderness. The next parts will follow as soon as they are translated: Part 2: “Over The Rocky Mountains”, Part 3: “Across The Prairie”, Part 4: “Along The Great Rivers” and Part 5: “From The Gulf To The Keys
