First Pub on the Right: A Wife-Changing Motorcycle Adventure from Cork to Cape Town

Price: $32.99

Imbued with the sharp wit and dry humour characteristic of a true Irishman, David “Irish” Anderson chronicles his extraordinary eighteen-month motorcycle journey from Ireland to South Africa in this gripping travel memoir. Conceived over a pint in a pub and brought to life after six years of meticulous planning, Irish and his wife embark on a daring adventure, their two heavily laden motorcycles serving as their steadfast companions.

In a twist of fate, Irish parts ways with his wife during the journey, but he continues to navigate through the heartbreak and the myriad challenges that the long, often rugged road throws at him, gaining a profound new understanding of life in the process.

Join him as he embarks on thrilling escapades, including a surprising encounter with an elephant, an impromptu exfoliation in a desert sandstorm, and numerous interactions with peculiar individuals offering well-intentioned, albeit impractical advice.

With a keen eye for detail, Irish masterfully encapsulates the essence of each country he visits, the individuals he encounters, the obstacles he overcomes, and the pure joy of discovery that accompanies venturing into unexplored territories, presenting the reader with a vivid, multi-layered travelogue experience.
