Hey folks,

Well I have been away for a while, working in the middle east and then went to India for three months. Bought a Royal Enfield and went from the southern tip, up into Goa then inland to Hampi then back south.
Incredible biking.

I hope these pics come out, first time posting pics. :dunno

The police pulled me for no lid, so after placing my cap on my head I was allowed to continue...

I am organizing a longer (distance) trip over 40 days, at the end of the year. But this time heading all the way up into Tibet.

Flick.
 
Back in the uk yerp.... fecking sucks. In my garage buildin my Tuono up. I should be fixing my Mille, she needs some TLC, fairing and bracket is broke from jumping speed humps starter is toast I think, or sprag... solenoid has gone again. Yammy one too, she has eaten two now...
 
Nice pics Flick. It must have been a wonderful experience all that time traveling on your bike. Enjoy the weather now :pirate
 
:inlove Lucky B--stard that looks just to cool mate :thumbup
Bring on the summer :doug
 
Yeah, welcome back Flick. :thumbup

How much did you bung the cop who stopped you for no lid?:devious
 
Had a steep fine of 100 ruppes, which is a whopping 70 pence... three good meals basically.

He wrote out a ticket too, which I have kept and am getting framed too add to the collection....:devious
 
Velcome back

Vell, Velcome back mister Flick.
I have only ridden pillion on the back of a honda Hero throught the streets of Panipat, needed a charger for my phone and did not feel I could trust the bloke to take my mobile to the shop to find a suitable charger so jumped on the back of his Honda Hero (and to be honest it was scarier than any other bike riding I have done). If the sprag on the mille is gone the one from a ducati monster fits and is half the price. I have the part number somewhere.
Pete :nana
 
Must say that looks like a bit of fun mate, bit different to blasting round Scotlands finest roads, great photos too:thumbup
 
Triffic 'innit

Have to say it does look like a hoot, good you made it back in one piece. :biggrin
Pete (referred to as Mr Peter when out there :doug)
