Going Somewhere: A Bicycle Journey Across America

Going Somewhere: A Bicycle Journey Across America

â€œLetâ€™s hope Benson has more travels in mind. He is a gifted writer, an observant human with an eye for the telling detail and how to tell it.â€â€”Booklist

Brian has a million vague life plans but zero sense of direction. So when he meets Rachel, a self-possessed woman who daydreams of bicycling across the States, he decides to follow her wherever she'll take him. Brian and Rachel soon embark on a ride from northern Wisconsin to Somewhere West,Â infatuated with the promise of adventure and each other. But as the pair progress from the Northwoods into the bleak western plains, they begin to discover the messy realities of life on the road. Mile by mile, they contend with merciless winds and brutal heat, broken bikes and bodies, each other and themselvesâ€”and the looming question of what comes next. Told in a voice "as hilarious as it is wise" (Cheryl Strayed),Â Going SomewhereÂ is a candid tale of the struggle to move forward.
