Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
'A wonderfully entertaining and deeply inspirational adventure by one of life's great enthusiasts' - Tim Moore, travel writer
A slow, low-carbon journey by bike through Europe's western fringes. Part personal pilgrimage and part manifesto for green travel, join Martin in his search for perfect waves and the soul of surfing.
Chasing the sun south from his home in Cornwall, bestselling author and environmental campaigner Martin Dorey follows in the footsteps of the pioneers who discovered Europe's best waves. On an epic journey of 3400km, Martin and his wife Lizzy take on the ultimate eco surfing adventure - riding eBikes with their surfboards in tow.
Powered by patisseries and pastâ©is de nata, and returning to form after a disastrous knee injury, Martin hopes cycling will give him time to reconnect with his surfing past as he seeks out the stories and oral history that make the surf breaks of littoral Europe so very special.
The Way of the Waves is a love letter to wave riding, eco-travel and freedom. It's a testament to taking your time, understanding that the hills don't last forever, keeping the pedals turning and hoping that mind, body and soul - and the wheels of the trailer - will go the distance.
