either a motor-cycle or a bicycle to enjoy the thrilling experiences through
which the Motor Cycle Chums pass on their way to seek adventure and
excitement. Brimful of clever episodes."
This six volume series was
published by Hurst in 1912-1915. All volumes were illustrated by Charles L.
Wrenn.

- THE MOTOR CYCLE CHUMS AROUND THE WORLD -- "Could Jules
Verne have dreamed of encircling the globe with a motor cycle for
emergencies, he would have deemed it an achievement greater than any he
described in his account of the amusing travels of Phileas Fogg. This,
however, is the purpose successfully carried out by the Motor Cycle
Chums, and the tale of their mishaps, hindrances, and delays is one of
intense interest, secret amusement, and incidental information to the
reader." -- illustrated by
Charles Wrenn. 1912. Hurst.
- THE MOTOR CYCLE CHUMS OF THE NORTHWEST PATROL -- "The
Great Northwest is a section of vast possibilities and in it the Motor
Cycle Chums meet adventures even more unusual and exciting than many of
their experiences on their tour around the world. There is not a dull
page in this lively narrative of clever boys and their attendant 'Chinee.'"
-- illustrated by
Charles Wrenn. 1912. Hurst.
- THE MOTOR CYCLE CHUMS IN THE GOLD FIELDS -- "How the
Motor Cycle Chums were caught by the lure of the gold and into what
difficulties and novel experiences they were led, makes a tale of
thrilling interest." -- illustrated by
Charles L. Wrenn. 1912. Hurst.
- THE MOTOR CYCLE CHUMS' WHIRLWIND TOUR -- "To right a
wrong is the mission that leads the Riding Rovers over the border into
Mexico and gives the impulse to this story of amusing adventures and
exciting episodes." -- illustrated by Charles
L. Wrenn. 1913. Hurst.
- THE MOTOR CYCLE CHUMS SOUTH OF THE EQUATOR -- "New
customs, strange peoples and unfamiliar surroundings add fresh zest to
the interest of the Motor Cycle Chums in travel, and the tour described
in this volume is full of the tropical atmosphere." -- illustrated by
Charles Wrenn. 1914. Hurst.
- THE MOTOR CYCLE CHUMS THROUGH HISTORIC AMERICA -- "The
Motor Cycle Chums explore the paths where American history was made,
where interest centers to-day as never before." -- illustrated
by Charles L. Wrenn. 1915. Hurst.
