Sowerby’s Road, Adventures of a driven mind

The Sowerby road less traveled

Join Sowerby through 25 years of motoring mania. Partying all night with a Giant and a Brain. Tying his delirious partner to his seat on a flight over the Iran-Iraq war. Trying to outdrive the clock on a race around the world. Regularly driving for 6 hours to and from dental appointments. Narrowly escaping bandit bullets in Kenya. Wrestling the English wind for the best fuel economy. Driven

Stories of adventure, global travel, and the unquenchable thirst for the road. Sowerbys Road is not just about the asphalt, gravel, and dust pathways that carry all of us through life, but about The Road that one man inadvertently took to adventure. With a dash of irreverence and a good bit of intrigue, Sowerbys Road doles out 50 fresh tales that pack an invigorating escape from the everyday.

Garry Sowerby, a 4-time world record holder for long-distance driving, columnist, and global adventurer has been road tripping the planet for the past 25 years. He has driven “Around the Bloc in a Week” to celebrate the fall of the Berlin Wall. He’s smuggled a truckload of children’s books to Moscow schools and libraries. He’s even put a car on top of Toronto’s CN Tower!
