The Cycling Adventures of Coconut Head (Whitecap Books, $17,95) by professional dreamer Ted Schredd, chronicles Schredd’s 8,000-mile cycling odyssey across North America, Gruelling as they may sound, it is humor. and folly that defined his and friend Deanne’s two- wheeled adventure (Deanne and Schredd capped the trip with a wedding: their own). Schredd — whose work experience includes sandwich tuaker, cell phone salesman and Frisbee instructor — - embarked on the trip to give what he felt was his meaningless existence a lift. “I lived‘in a small apartment and had managed to accu- mulate thousands of.dollars of frivolous credit card debt,” writes Schredd. “My life had no real meaning... I wanted to see if there was more to fife than just existing.” Judging from itis on-road experiences, he got his wish. There’s Tammi the exotic dancer, Duke the Texan, and ’” ketchup-eating raccoons. A good, humorous read that avoids the dreaded, dry, trav- elogue format so often used in the road-book genre. — Andrew McCredie edge the: assist (al supporto t 7 PEP ABLASHIN m Corenrry-cuAc® © All aboard the train to Park Royal to see the huge selection of Thomas the Train.
