Download or read book Pasta Punctures Perseverence written by Howard Ashton and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-04-20 with total page 1227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why cycle fast when you can cycle slowly, (often very slowly, as dictated by terrain, topography and the weather). Intrepid explorer W.H.Tilman saw the merits of such an attitude when he remarked that all travel is dull exactly in proportion to its rapidity. Howard adopted Tilmans attitude as he adventured, over many years, across the world on two self-propelled wheels, that incredibly efficient machine for personal transport - a bicycle! Born affected by cerebral palsy, it was through the therapeutic effects of much massage and manipulations of his limbs that, by the age of 3, his legs had enough strength to push pedals, if not allowing him to stand and walk! And pushing pedals is what he has been doing almost daily for the past 65 years! From trundling down the garden path on a bright red Gresham Flyer trike, his competence and confidence quickly built, as did muscle strength and tone. This simple activity allowed him to overcome the physical limitations which life had imposed upon him. Since those very early days, countless bicycles have carried him tens of thousands of miles. Very short journeys, just down the road to primary school,were gradually extended over the following decades. Pedal power became Howards passport to personal freedom. Almost always solo, and camping wild, the range and magnitude of these cycling adventures inexorably expanded, from roaming both Scottish and Irish by-ways, to the high roads (but mostly) back roads of more than sixty countries across the world. Here he shares a selection of the diaries written along the way, recounting the experiences and interactions which are the, seemingly inevitable, consequence of this slowly and lowly method of travel. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to SCOPE, the UK charity supporting those affected by cerebral palsy and their families.

These dramatic scenarios serve not just as thought experiments but also as profiles of courage depicting outcasts struggling to reconstruct meaning amidst life's harshest limiting walls.

Immerse yourself in apocalyptic landscapes and post-human societies, where characters don exoskeletons to navigate their terrains. Witness the rising tension as protagonists face challenges that test their mettle and push the boundaries of human progression. By becoming immersed in these atypical fictional landscapes, it's my hope you'll return from the journey with refreshed eyes towards the intricacies, contrasts, and profound magic still embedding the world immediately around us each new day.

The worlds awaiting behind these pages overflow with surreal transformations, psychedelic visions, whimsical quests, and characters courageously chasing redemption who might inspire us in turn. Let's reconstruct Reality with a capital "R" by first shattering limiting assumptions—then inviting you, fellow traveller, to help gather the pieces into new mosaics alive with awe and possibility! As we stand on the red edge of imagination, let our shared adventure begin now...
