I know he's not the only published writer to have popped up on the site at one time or another, perhaps before they've made their trips. I can think of the Tuk-tuk girls as well. I'd love to have the chance to find out a bit more from Mike, and the other authors too, and personally I feel it's a bit of a pity that they've dipped in to find out info without staying in to add in their own information.

Mike's doing really well and yes, he did write a book about cycling around the UK. I'm told that it's even better than Uneasy Rider. I didn't like him for the first couple of chapters of that book by the way, but then he seemed to get in the swing of things and the story racked up more than a couple of notches. I enjoyed it. If anyone would like to know more, or to meet him even, he's signed up to be book signing and to do a presentation at the HUBB UK. Nice.
