Three Men on the Bummel by Jerome K. Jerome
"A 'Bummel'," I explained, "I should describe as a journey, long or short, without an end."

However delightful this may appear, it is sometimes necessary to arrive back at the point from which one started. And for the three intrepid friends - whose earlier exploits are recounted in the immortal "Three Men in a Boat" - this does pose something of a problem.

But having decided on a cycling trip through the Black Forest, George, Harris and J. set out undeterred on a tandem plus one. Whether it is George's valiant attempt to buy a cushion for his aunt, or Harris's harrowing experience with a Hanoverian road-waterer, their experiences are far from dull - and they may even offer salutary lessons to all those contemplating a cycling holiday on the Continent.
