Our New Bicycling Adventure Book is Published!

My daughter Jocelyn and I completed our around the word bicycle journey riding home to Cape Canaveral, Florida in December 2016. While stationed at the South Pole this past winter we wrote our second book about this ride, "A Father and Daughter World Cycling Journey".

I have been home for a month now and we have putting the finishing touches on this book. This new book is available through our website: 


Follow this father and daughter team of Mike and Jocelyn as they return to their bicycles for an awe-inspiring world adventure after their journey across the U.S. and New Zealand as written in their first adventure book published in 2013. In pursuit of this, they begin their most challenging ride yet from Marrakesh, Morocco to Bangkok, Thailand. North Africa, Europe, Central Asia, China, and Southeast Asia are traversed as they continue to explore this amazing world along with its diversity of people and cultures.
After this enlightening ride, they continue from Washington State at the Canadian border and work their way south down the West Coast of the U.S., Mexico, Central America, and South America. Upon reaching Puerto Montt, Chile, they concede that the Southern Chile winter weather will prevent their progress further south. Next on their list is heading east across Canada to Nova Scotia, then south along the East Coast of the U.S., and then home to Cape Canaveral, Florida. They arrive home in December of 2016 from a world trip consisting of 37 countries, five continents, and over 28,000 miles.
Mike and Jocelyn envisioned this travel by bicycle not so much as a cycling exercise but rather as a means to get to out-of-the-way places, to dig deeply into a country’s cultures, and to meet locals in a way that normal tourists rarely do.

  1. Thank you Mike for taking your rest time to write and create this wonderful record of your journey with Jocelyn. She has been a supportive partner in this endeavor, but it would not have been completed without your tenacity. I remember most of the experiences and appreciate the human nature of this kind of travel. I am grateful for the road angels and dear friends who supported all of us during this very unique time. Love always, andee
