Just finished reading "Riding the Ranges" by Bill Aitken, a Scotsman who has made India his home for the last five decades. He has ridden his motorbike across the Himalaya and Sahyadri ranges, two most important mountain ranges in India. It is an easy read book of his travels to places like Arunachal Pradesh, Ladakh, the Deccan, Western Ghats and the various small towns dotting the Himalayan landscape. As a travelogue, it is a different kind, since it is undertaken on his motorbike, so he has dwelt some time on the motorbike related problems while travelling.
