Ride into the Mirror
Is a large project based around a long tour bike ride through South East Asia, a short side trip to the Western Europe, and culminating in a cross continent ride in North America. Ride into the Mirror is visual journey, written in two parts, of a solo bike ride of 16.000 kilometres through Asia and North America in 2012.

Geert started his ride on his old steed Specialised ‘Stumpjumper’. When the frame had cracked in Thailand, he bought a new bike Trek ‘Trekky’ and continued his ride to Vietnam and later from Boston to Los Angeles in the United States of America.

Below are thumbnails of the covers. The first two covers are of a sketchbook with stories. The white cover is the Asian section and the pink cover is about the ride through North America.

Then there is a photobook with Stumpjumper on the cover. And followed by a small black and white addition with more stories about that massive journey. These two books have been written in English.

Then the books that are almost identical have been written in Dutch.
