Geoff Thomas' mother, Barbara, had no regrets in life, but there were two things that she'd wished might have happened. Firstly, she'd wished that her husband George Thomas could have lived long enough to meet his new grandchildren who were born shortly after his death and were growing-up in the small town of Boonville, Northern California. Secondly, she'd wished that just once, they'd had the opportunity to ride their beloved Triumph motorcycle down a road as beautiful as the Pacific Coast Highway. One year after her death, Barbara Thomas' wishes would be realised, but probably not in a way that she would have imagined.With very little money and no relevant experience, Geoff Thomas quits his job as a London Despatch Rider and sets out to deliver the most important package of his career, the ashes of his adopted parents. With a budget of just #65533;20 per day, through Europe, The Balkans, Turkey, Russia, across the wilds of Siberia and onwards into Southeast Asia and North America, Thomas discovers an unexpected world, a world that delivers constant challenges and unexpected adventures. 'Ashes to Boonville' is the first book in the Poor Circulation trilogy and charts the amazing journey from England to Boonville, California.
