Sylvain Tesson En Avant, Calme et Fou

The text in this book is in French, but the words don’t really matter. The amazing photographs document eccentric travels in exotic locations. Urals and Enfields, with and without sidecars, in deserts, on mountain passes and frozen lakes in Russia, Mongolia, Vietnam, India and elsewhere. Also featuring elephants, camels, cigars, wine and fancy dress, engine swaps and ice disasters. Look at the pictures and be inspired. No wonder the title translates as ‘Here we go, madness and serenity’.
