My current favourite is Robert Fulton's "One Man Caravan" - RTW by moto in the early 30's.

Great story, funny motivation, beautiful writing and humour as dry as a slice of Kingsmill toast. Photos and hand-drawn maps as well...

'Running With The Moon' By Johny Bealby is a great book, well worth reading.

yes, Running with the Moon is the best travel story I read. Ted Simons book Jupiters Travels is a fantastic book about his rtw journey in the 70s.
