The Los Angeles Times’ John M. Glionna doesn’t have the nerve to ditch his sedentary reporting job for the world traveler dream life. But Richard Gregg does. A one-time engineer in his home country of England, Gregg has spent the last 12 years pedaling around the planet. When Gregg walked into Glionna’s office recently hoping to talk to a reporter, Glionna found himself so inspired he invited Gregg to stay at his home to learn more about the vagabond way. “What I wanted to know was this: Why do some people choose to live out their lives within a few miles of their birthplace while others clamor to escape their roots in an evolving effort to reinvent themselves?” Glionna writes.
