Bike-mad couple go ‘Beyond Bucharest’

1 of 1

What would possess an otherwise sane grandmother to forsake her knitting and ride a Honda 650 to the Black Sea and back, tackling the worst roads, most atrocious weather and most dangerous driving on the way?

A love of children, a UK charity and an adventurous husband, it would seem, judging by the book of their travels recently published.

‘Beyond Bucharest’ by former biker-journalist Bob Goddard tells the tale of his and wife Viv’s extraordinary journey on two motorbikes, through 12 countries and 16 borders, to help raise publicity in Romania and Bulgaria for UK charity EveryChild.

Join them for an inadvertent night in a brothel. Laugh with them at the absurdities of life on the road.

Hop on board for the adventure of a lifetime and hold on tight!
