But for Shirley Hardy-Rix and Brian Rix it was one of the best days of their lives. This is what the well-travelled retired couple had hoped for when they planned to fill a gap in their riding experience and take on Scandinavia, the old Silk Road in Central Asia and the world's largest country, Russia. They shipped their motorcycle to Greece and spent the next six months riding to the northern-most tip of Europe and then taking the long road to Vladivostok in Russia. From freezing cold to the searing heat of 47C in the deserts of Central Asia, Shirley and Brian pushed the boundaries, tackling icy roads and gravel tracks. They rode through water crossings and deep sand drifts to reach some of the most beautiful cities on the Silk Road. 'The Long Way to Vladivostok' takes readers through some of the world's most glorious and remote areas, sharing the joys and hardships of life on the road. Experience their travels from the comfort of your armchair or be inspired to pack your bags and hit the road.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shirley Hardy-Rix, Brian Rix\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardy-Rix Media Services\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.67d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780646953731\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hardy-Rix Media Services","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40081005412467,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_869ae5f9-c453-4341-8b76-271fead226d9.jpg?v=1652278356","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-long-way-to-vladivostok-9780646953731","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
