Ketan Joshi is a writer, traveller and long-distance motorcyclist who enjoys riding to the edges of maps. His journeys across India combine travel, history and humour — usually accompanied by mechanical mishaps, questionable planning, and a stubborn Royal Enfield motorcycle.
Apart from motorcycling - he travels the world in all kinds of ways - backpacking, cycling, cruising and driving. He has also fallen off a horse! He has been to more than 50 countries - including Iran, Cuba and places like Antarctica and Svalbard near the Arctic circle - which are not part of any he country at all.
He has trekked to the Everest Base Camp, motorcycled to the highest road in the world - and attempted the Ironman 70.3.
Ketan is perhaps the most prolific travel writer in India - with 22 books and counting. He lives in Mumbai.

NEW BOOK!
The plan is simple.
Ride a motorcycle to the very edge of India — to Arunachal Pradesh, where the country runs out of road and bumps into China and Myanmar, where the sun arrives first, and where the Himalayas collapse into rainforest with absolutely no regard for comfort.
Arunachal Pradesh is not just another corner of India. It is India in italics — a wild frontier of more than a hundred tribes, forgotten kingdoms, high mountain battlefields, and rivers so wide they look like inland seas.
Into this landscape rides one man on a Royal Enfield.
Well… two men this time.
What follows is a journey of flat tyres, burning saddlebags, muddy mountain roads with homicidal tendencies, wildlife with romantic agendas, and borders that feel less like lines and more like arguments.
Funny, irreverent and occasionally singed,
One Man Rides to the Edge of India is a motorcycle adventure into one of the wildest places left on the map.
