The Arunachal Motorcycle Diaries

Seven men from the southern city of Bengaluru and their motorbikes, embark upon a crazy trip to explore the isolated parts of Arunachal Pradesh. They need logistics, machines and material to carry out this wild task. Two brave mercenaries from Pune bring them the machines, material and a back-up van to help them accomplish t-his onerous mission. The nine bikers, along with the high-speed Winger, slither through the deadly terrains of the Arunachal Hills on a seven day rendezvous, passing though steep gorges, slippery off-roads, stealthy valleys, deceptive passes amidst bountiful valleys, magnificent waterfalls, winding rivers, astonishing ropeways and pouring rain. The seven-day man-machine-nature saga starts off smoothly but unbeknownst to the men and the machines, troubles envelop the machines as each day progresses. The rendezvous nose-dives into dangerous exercises as the machines fail each day and the nerves of the nine men are put to severe test. Disorientation sets into the minds of the steely men. Will they survive against all odds and triumphantly overcome obstacles or will they succumb to the pressures of their extraordinary journey? Read The Arunachal Motorcycle Diaries to get a whiff of the ultimate biking experience.

His trip might have been an adventure of a lifetime -- had his lifetime not turned into a much greater adventure.; Features exclusive, unpublished photos taken by the 23-year old Ernesto on his journey across the continent.; and a tender preface by Aleida Guevara, offering an insightful perspetive on her father -- the man and the icon.

After the release in 2004 of the exhilarating film of the same title, directed by Walter Salles, the book became a New York Times and international bestseller. This edition includes a new introduction by Walter Salles and an array of new material that was assembled for the 2004 edition coinciding with the release of the film, including 24 pages of previously unpublished photos taken by Che, notes and comments by his wife, Aleida Guevara March, and an extensive introduction by the distinguished Cuban author, Cintio Vitier. "A journey, a number of journeys. Ernesto Guevara in search of adventure, Ernesto Guevara in search of America, Ernesto Guevara in search of Che. On this journey, solitude found solidarity. 'I' turned into 'we.'"—Eduardo Galeano "As his journey progresses, Guevara's voice seems to deepen, to darken, colored by what he witnesses in his travels. He is still poetic, but now he comments on what he sees, though still poetically, with a new awareness of the social and political ramifications of what's going on around him."—January Magazine "Our film is about a young man, Che, falling in love with a continent and finding his place in it." —Walter Salles, director of the film version of The Motorcycle Diaries "All this wandering around 'Our America with a Capital A' has changed me more than I thought." —Ernesto Che Guevara, from The Motorcycle Diaries
