In Clancy's Boots

In Clancy’s Boots is an unmissable travel book for anyone who loves motorbikes and adventure.

In 1912, Carl Stearns Clancy undertook the longest, most difficult and most perilous journey ever attempted on a motorcycle. By June 1913 he had made history, becoming the first person ever to circumnavigate the globe on a motorbike.

One hundred years on, bestselling author and motorcycle adventurer Geoff Hill recreates Clancy’s historic journey. Following the same route, and with Clancy’s account of the journey echoing in his head, Geoff travels through Europe and north Africa, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Hong Kong, China and Japan, all the way to America and Clancy’s home town of New York.
