Des Molloy and Dick Huurdeman look like the sort of guys who should be sedately steering a sleigh in a Santa Parade, not riding old single-banner British bikes half way across the world through some of the most diffi cult and remote terrain imaginable. Des’s son Steve joined this intrepid pair as a camera man and general factotum for the highs and lows of an incident-packed three month trek from Beijing to Arnhem on ‘Penelope’, a 1965 Yorkshire-made 650cc Panther, and ‘Dutch Courage’, a 1954 Norton 600. Was this idiocy or odyssey? Decide for yourself as you read Des Malloy’s account of their adventures and misadventures. You don’t need to be a motorcycle maniac to enjoy this story which reads like a long yarn over a few beers at the pub.Prepare to be amused, excited, moved, entertained and informed as you fi nd out how much of this impossible dream became reality for our unlikely trio.
