US teen to cycle across Europe after completing perilous ride from Alaska to Argentina

Liam Garner’s Pan-American adventure lasted a year – now he’s eyeing another odyssey, and planning to write a book about it

A US teenager who reported being robbed and even hospitalized while spending more than a year bicycling from northern Alaska to southern Argentina is now mulling plans for a similar trip from Europe to Asia.

Liam Garner and his trip across the Americas, which he completed in January, has drawn headlines from international news outlets including CNN, Insider and the BBC. But he is insisting he’s not done with his efforts, which he says demonstrate that one doesn’t have to be rich to travel internationally.
