Cycling Themed Book Event at the Ewart Library

Hello (from the Ewart Library),

 We are hosting a book event at the Ewart Library with a cycling theme which I thought may appeal to your group members!  I would be delighted if you could please extend an invite to the group to come along, its free and everyone is welcome.

Naomi Johnson, The World at 15mph…. ish.

 Aged 36 and ready for a change in her life Naomi set off to cycle the world.

 This adventure of a lifetime would see her travel through various countries including riding from Cairo to Capetown and cross over the 5,416m Thorong-la pass in Nepal. With early school reports noting she would be better at sport if she at least turned up, this is not an athlete’s journey - just an ordinary person with a great opportunity and a can-do attitude. The trip would be life changing and 26 countries and almost 20,000 miles later she came home.

The book outlines how the trip came about, the journey travelled and what happened on her return.

Join Naomi to hear this incredible story as part of our Book Week Scotland Celebrations.
