What do you do when you’ve lost everything? You bet it all on a mad idea.
After a broken heart and a bankrupt business left him at rock bottom, Bobby Bolton made a drunken promise in a Wigan pub: he was going to drive to Australia in a converted truck with his dog, Red.
He thought it would be a story of one man and his dog. How wrong he was.
Just weeks into his journey, a chance encounter with a beautiful hiker named Marie changed everything. After only two dates, she bravely joined him on the adventure of a lifetime, and their epic love story began.
But their new life on the road was forged in the face of constant danger:
- Bribing corrupt Russian police
- Surviving a mountain track collapse in Italy
- Being interrogated at a Taliban checkpoint
- Rescuing his new girlfriend from a 200-metre fall down a cliff face
Action-packed, hilarious, and full of Northern charm, Truck It! is the inspirational true story of what happens when you leave it all behind and find love, adventure, and a reason to live again.
A genuine traveller, doing it for real reasons that came out of a real crisis in his life . . . the book is a pleasure to read * The Mail on Sunday *
Bobby’s amazing worldwide adventure delivers heart, plenty of drama, and an irresistible sprinkling of good old northern charm and humour. Don’t miss the ride! * Lancashire Evening Post *
