Back in the 1980s, teenagers Blair, Steven, Scottie and Pete embark on two calamitous bicycle rides to the Hawkesbury River. In 2011, in an ambitious attempt to recreate the past, the now middle-aged men set out on a third river ride. Drawing upon old photos, mythological creatures and local and historical personalities, the author Blair Paterson reflects on a lifetime of river experiences and the value of good friends, and the profound beauty of the Hawkesbury River shines through as a love-song from go to whoa.
