Right now I am reading Thomas Stevens' book Around the World by Bicycle written in the 1880's. It was just recently republished and available from bookstores. It's a long read with amazing detail. This guy rode around the world first and had pretty bad equipment, not to mention almost nonexistant roads!

I am just finishing Thomas Stevens. One of the best adventure books I have ever read.
