A Ride in the Sun by Peggy Iris Thomas

Product Description

In A Ride In The Sun – Gasoline Gypsy, Peggy tells the lighthearted story of her adventures whilst motorcycling through the forests of Nova Scotia and over the Canadian Rockies, stopping long enough along the way to recoup her finances by holding down two office jobs at once in an eighteen-hour working day in New Brunswick, and working as an apple picker and factory labourer in British Columbia. Then off down the beautiful Pacific coast, south-east to Mexico and up the eastern seaboard to New York City. Undaunted by sandstorms, earthquakes, tropical gales and incredible desert heat, thrilled by the invigorating life outdoors and cheered along by her many new-found friends, she has woven her unique journey into an engaging account of life on the open road. This second edition includes 14 photographs of the author, her motorcycle and Airedale dog.
