O knihe

After leaving behind the routines of work life, Kevin Ryan sets out on a 4,000-mile journey by bicycle across America to discover who he is after a fulfilling and busy career. From the charming small towns of New England to the vast, rugged landscapes of the Rocky Mountains, this inspiring memoir captures not only the physical adventure but also the deeper, more personal quest for a renewed sense of purpose. Starting at Boston Harbor and pedaling through Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Ohio, South Dakota, Wyoming, and beyond to the Pacific Coast of Oregon, the author and his wife, Cheryl, find themselves navigating more than just the scenic roads. As they meet fellow adventurers, kind strangers, and far-flung friends, Kevin realizes that this journey is about connection, growth, and transformation. As the miles tick by, so do the challenges-wildfires, accidents, and unforeseen obstacles that push him closer to the person he wants to become in this final third of life. Through it all, he reflects deeply on lessons learned, relationships, retirement, and the meaning found in every twist of the road. Across a Continent; Across a Life is more than a travel memoir; it's a story of resilience, reinvention, and the ongoing pursuit of joy. For those seeking a path to new beginnings, deeper connections, and a renewed sense of purpose, this memoir is a reminder that life's greatest adventures often begin when we think our journey is over.
