    awesome ride i ever had

    I have been a famous super slow eater & reader amongst family & friends. But, this time i miraculously completed 62pgs in an hour.I also completed the book in 4 days .The simple narration of a complex off roading bullet journey keeps you glued.I myself relate to some simple mentions like singing inside the helmet etc.Being a lady rider I have been on long distance riding trips but, never solo & not yet on a bullet .I now plan to buy my very own bull & indulge into some short trip for starters...

    A beautiful travelogue!

    Ajit Harisighani's 'One life to Ride' is a marvelously well written book.
    I and Ajit have been close friends from our school days; he has this great talent of expressing to his friends in a language that is charming and easy to understand.
    This book brings forth his talent. This motorcycle rider does not believe in planning his visits to the various places well in advance. By the time it is late in the evening he gets into a close by village and mixes with the villagers.
    A beautifully well ...

    Thumbs Up!! Enjoyed the book thoroughly!!

    First of all Thank you very much to Flipkart team as because without them i think it won't be possible for me to find this kind of book.
    As per as the book is concerned, I thoroughly enjoyed the book. It is something more than a travelogue. The writer Mr. Ajit Harisinghani is totally successful to make the readers feel the pulse of the journey.

    Amazing Book: One Guide to Cross Country

    Firstly, great delivery by Flipkart.
    Now to the book. I'm an avid reader and this one is a gem I'll keep close to me. One can read and then re-read it. It will help to discover something new every time.

    Writing style is most interesting as will feel author is sitting next to you and telling you this experience in-person.
    I recommend this book to be a MUST for every RE lover.

    Hats-Off to the Bullet loving Author!

    enjoyed the read

    for a bullet enthusiast, and for someone with leh-ladhak on their radar (sometime in the near future :)) - this provided a great read... there were times when I just felt like getting on my bike and heading out and at other times I felt like I really should do a lot more research and learn a lot more about the bike before I take on something as big as this challenge :)

    Something more than just a travelogue...

    A very prompt and super fast delivery from the FK team.

    Now that I have already completed the book, one thing that I can definitely say, it is more than a travelogue. The way the facts have been described, has kept me glued to the book.
    It feels great to read journey's description.

    I do not have enough words to describe, but definitely, it is a gem. One can definitely go for it.

    I am now waiting eagerly for the Pune to Thimpu ride by Mr. Ajit.
