Review:
A story about fathers and sons, a story about geography, a story about history...ultimately a story about faith in everyday encounters.
More than the tale of a physical journey, this story is a metaphor for life and living. We can all do what we set our minds to if we concentrate on pushing one pedal after another and focus on our companions' encouraging words "I'll wait for you at the top..."
"'Because it was there,' Robin Lind quoted Sir Edmund Hillary, when asked why on earth he and his son Frank, cycled from Manakin-Sabot, Virginia to Oakville Ontario, Canada.
"A throwaway answer it would seem, but only a modest camouflage for a much deeper, abiding conviction that life is an adventure-and the path less traveled is usually the one far more scintillating. Travel with these two as they take their bikes along roads, byways and gravel paths Pedaling Northwards. Slip over covered bridged, glide by giant dams, speed through vast forests, streak along wind-whipped highways; then stop and take a breath along the avenues of history with Lind & Lind.
"With humor, insight and elan, Lind seems to follow a Peter Pan flight plan: through Piedmont Virginia, into Western Maryland, over the mountains of Pennsylvania, up to the Finger Lakes of New York State all the way to the shores of Lake Ontario; then, left at the next star and they're headed for Niagara and Canada."
