A simple, but readable book about a New Zealand couple who travel to India and buy a second hand Royal Enfield Bullet (motor cycle) and travel around Rajasthan. At the end of their trip they decide to try their hand at guiding others on a similar tour. This book covers their seventh tour, and looks back to their original travel, and picks out anecdotes from their previous tours.
The success of the business is based around the relationships of various people in India, providing (most importantly) the motor cycles, but also their employees who assist with the running repairs, the accommodation suppliers and local guides.
It is obvious from the writing that the couple have a real connection with India, and this is infectiously passed on to their clients and the reader. There are a number of photos which are also varied and interesting.
3.5 stars rounded up.
