Adeus India

PORTUGUESE AFRICA, 1973. Slowly, we have plenty of time: the words of the Second Lieutenant to the small band of soldiers he commands. A land mine exploding on the forest track, the patrol lost in the forest. The death of a soldier, shots in the night. Involved in a war in which the enemy is never seen, the mud-splattered soldiers methodically carry out the final pilgrimage without bitterness or glory, the tame farewell of a generation to five centuries of Portuguese presence in Africa: a story of war.

For a 13-year-old boy like Filipe, the prospect of a summer vacation in the Azores with his father is like a dream come true. But dreams are sometimes just a way to avoid facing reality.

Also known as The India Ride. When Canadian brothers Colin and Ryan Pyle completed their record-breaking circumnavigation of China by motorcycle in 2010, they thought it would be their last great adventure together. In August 2012, they were back on the road again, this time on a journey around India. Fifty-four tough days later, they'd traveled 14,000 km, driven on some of the most dangerous roads in the world across deserts and over mountains, in torrential rainstorms and almost unbearable heat. They'd visited some remarkable places, including the magnificent Golden Temple at Amritsar, the perplexing Karni Mata Temple at Deshnoke, the holy River Ganges, and the site of Buddha's enlightenment at Bodh Gaya. They'd compounded the dangers of the road by paragliding at Manali, made a perfect cup of tea in Darjeeling, met some amazing people, and learned that almost nothing in India is what you expect it to be. In The India Ride, Colin and Ryan take us with them as they push themselves to new limits on a voyage of discovery that most people will only ever dream of making.
