I stumbled across this old thread doing research for something else.
A pdf copy of Michael's book can be downloaded here
I'd also love to get a copy of his adventure crossing the Sahara by taxi Desert Taxi if anyone has come across it.
Another really good read is Scooting Through by Ruth Blayne.
Two young and very naive girls left London on a 125cc Lambretta, with their picnic case for food strapped to the back as if they were going for a run to Brighton. They made it to Australia! in 1959!!
Order a copy from here
