By: Neil M Hanson

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

WINNER - National Indie Excellence Book Awards FIRST PLACE - Next Generation Indie Book Awards FIRST PLACE - Independent Publisher Living Now Book Awards SILVER HONOREE - Benjamin Franklin Digital Award SECOND PLACE - Reader Views Reviewers Choice Award SECOND PLACE - Great Southwest Book Festival SECOND PLACE - CIPA EVVY Awards An engaging and reflective story woven around the western half of Hanson's bicycle journey from the Pacific to the Atlantic, exploring an America that can only be discovered on winding backroads from the saddle of a bicycle. More than just a travelogue of a bike ride across the country, Hanson's delightful and beautifully written story takes the reader on a journey that is engaging and insightful, often hilarious, sometimes poignant, and always inspiring. It's a must-read adventure that will stir your soul.

Good story let down by soulless AI narration

The story is just as much about a bike ride as it is about tie ins with life outside of cycling. Unfortunately, I think a lot of the messages could be so much better conveyed by a real narrator rather than Virtual Voice. It's 100% worth the listen, don't get me wrong. The delivery just could have done the story far more justice than it did.
