With the backing of the Discovery Channel, writer and botanist Jim Malusa set out on a six-year series of cycling adventures; his goal, to pedal solo to the lowest point on each continent not covered by snow and ice. Join Jim for an entertaining evening of slides and stories of his journeys to these “anti-summits”. He’ll take you cycling across the arid heart of Australia, retracing Moses’ route to the Dead Sea, pedaling across Patagonia and from Moscow to the Caspian Sea. Then you’ll traverse Djibouti in the Horn of Africa and tour from Tucson, Arizona to the depths of Death Valley. Come learn about solo bike travel from a keen adventurer, who knows how to find magic in the world’s great depressions. Following the program, Jim will sign copies of his new book, Into Thick Air: Biking to the Bellybutton of Six Continents.
