Um Welt

DRAFT. In November 1962 a 22-year-old tool-and-die maker rode out of a Westphalian village on a three-speed bicycle and did not stop for fifty years — 600,000 kilometres, 195 countries, shot in the foot in Zambia, beaten unconscious in Egypt, his bicycle stolen five times and recovered five times. A modern retelling of the real Heinz Stücke, who died on 22 July 2026, five days before this book was written.
