Don't Ask Any Old Bloke for Directions: A Biker's Whimsical Journey Across India by P G Tenzing, Book Review

Don't Ask Any Old Bloke for Directions: A Biker's Whimsical Journey Across India Don't Ask Any Old Bloke for Directions: A Biker's Whimsical Journey Across India by P G Tenzing

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This book turned out to be very different from what I had expected..



Actually, I was expecting a hippie kind of a guy, on his enfield roaring all over the country living back dust.. Very adventurous stuff, with someone very rich to keep the flow of fuel into his bike.. But the story is completely a contrast to what I have expected.. After completing the book I released that it is some way or the other like the book named "Horn Ok Please - HOPping To Conclusions"..



The book contains the story of a rider -actually pretty old to do something like this- who gives up his IAS job and wants to experience everything which he missed in his youth.. It's not just a story with lot of wierd names of places -which most of the ppl are never heard of-, its the journey of the author across country, in search of his debts to repay from his karmic past... The perfect blend of humour and adventure is irresistable.. Must read!!



Very refreshing, entertaining, exciting and inspiring book!!
