A Life of Pride

A Story of Adventure from Broken Hill to Cricklewood by Way of Darkest Africa (The Memoirs of Alan G Pride)

Four Wheels - Good!

Two Wheels - Better!

Roaring out of the Australian Desert and across the Seas comes the true story of a Broken Hill boy who found thrills, adventure and romance in a life of speed, power and Pride!

Alan Pride had a life-long affinity with motor bikes, fast cars and steam engines, from trains to tramp steamers. Working as an engineer on the last remaining tramp steamers travelling from England to Africa and back, his life was often dangerous, hilarious and everything in between.

The knock-about kid from Broken Hill finally made his way back home to Australia, married the English Rose love of his life and raised a family, but the adventures and his passion for motorbikes and cars never stopped.
