About the Book

Packing away her tutu and pointe shoes and donning cycling shorts and yellow Lycra, professional dancer Polly Benge took the decision to follow her heart. She soon found herself ferociously pedaling up mountains in India, staring at the increasingly distant backside of her beloved Tim. But mere mountains were to be the least of her worries. Prior information about the unsmiling Border Officials, the surroundings of extreme poverty, the inadequacy of maps, the continual bouts of constipation, and the real danger of travelling through Assam may have persuaded her to stay at home. This was not the India of Raj palaces or holy Ghats but the dangerous and explosive region of the isolated northeast. Polly and Tim spent their nights huddled under mosquito nets in the middle of the jungle while outside barbarous militants hid from the Indian army, and by day they cycled through the intoxicating hills of Meghalaya and the tea gardens of Darjeeling and Assam. This expedition was to represent far more than a journey to find the perfect cup of tea; for Polly it was to be a test of stamina, self-belief, and most of all her love for Tim. If they could survive this, then she would leave her comfy world of dancing, friends, and family and move to New Zealand to be with him forever.

About the Author :
Polly Benge spent much of her youth dancing and by the age of 19 she had secured a position in the Northern Ballet Theatre. However, after a few years she became disillusioned with the life of lettuce eating and claustrophobic restraints of the company and so made the decision to leave and entered into the world of contemporary dance. It was during her work as a part time waitress that she met Tim, the cheeky Dutch / Kiwi Chef who won her heart over a box of oyster mushrooms and a crate of baby leeks. A self-confessed neurotic and hopeless romantic Polly writes with such fresh humour and irresistible charm. Her work has the enviable quality of arousing a feeling of warmth in all who read it.

Review :
"A good read for seasoned cyclists who dream of two-wheeled travel in far-flung locations." The London Cyclist "Polly knows how to wield her pen...This colourful paperback is tailor-made to give armchair adventurers hope" On Your Bike.
