Between 1950 and 1952, Peggy Iris Thomas and her Airedale dog, Matelot, travelled 14,000 miles through Canada, United States and Mexico on a 125cc BSA Bantam. Perhaps when rounding a corner on some highway between Nova Scotia and Key West you have chanced upon this incredible trio: Oppy the indomitable motorcycle, its 125 pound frame swaying under three times its weight; Matelot, the automotive Airedale, perched on his box, ears flying in the breeze; and our gasoline gypsy herself, Peggy Iris Thomas, who has bumped her way over more than 14,000 miles of the United States, Mexico and Canada.

Following the breakdown of her marriage, 50-year-old Jacqui Furneaux set off on a seven-year, round-the-world adventure on a 500cc Royal Enfield Bullet. She traveled both solo and with company, covering 42,000 miles and 20 countries. This awe-inspiring and moving book about one woman’s motorcycle adventures is for anyone still holding back from taking a risk and pursuing their dreams.
