Their plans take a sudden detour when they meet George-a renowned Armenian-Iraqi competitive bicycle racer with an irresistible personality and a flair for the dramatic. George says he is driving to Beirut with his girlfriend and her mother to sell his car, but in reality he has a deeper plan...

A Note From the Publisher

Based on a true story that is almost too crazy to believe.

Advance Praise

"I was amazed at the amount of detail that the author Dr. T. (Robert "Bob" Tibolt wrote up in this real life travel). Definitely a page turner in which I felt like I went along with them with every unpredictable yet fun turn with other without their mysterious friend George. I was wondering how this was going to end if at all well or not. I just had to know and literally every page became a movie scene played out in my head with such great attention to detail. Really an interesting yet scary at times real life adventure." - Michael V.

I enjoyed this story far more than I expected. The journey the men took
was one they never forgot. The friendships made were lasting. There
is no better way to learn about far away lands than to visit them,~ and
the journey is far better when one visits with a friend.
For a relatively short story, it has quite a punch! I felt like I was with
"bill" and "bob" on their adventure as college kids turned loose on
foreign lands.
I recommend this book to everyone ~ it cuts across genre and
categorizations, straight into a book about our world showcasing
young people in a foreign land..
