Dear Zone,

Some of you might remember that late last year I ended up in India on a Royal Enfield, and embarked on a small adventure over a three month period and covered a good distance. If not check out the thread 'Riding India' not sure how to post a link, but I have a few pictures in there.

I had always planned to return, this time starting in Goa and heading north, Nepal being the target destination.

Last time I met girl out there and we travelled together:inlove
Monica moved from Canada to England and we are having a blast, but this time its a dude thing. Bunch of guys on a bunch of 500cc single plodders.

So, if any of you fancy an adventure? :devious

:thumbupThe riding is interesting. Slow yes, but its not a race.

:biggrinRoad rules are different to the uk of course, I am avoiding any major cites.

:thumbupPlenty of places to stay on route - No camping.

Will you get the ***** - Not if you eat well. For the record I did not get sick once in three months nor did I get the *****. The food on the coast was some of the best I have had in the world. And cheap!:inlove

Dates - Still flexible on this.

How much - Cheaper than you think. Flights from £500
No more than £2000. I am sourcing the bikes, food etc....
I am flying out early January to sort out the bikes, three on the list so far.


:biggrin
 
A friend of mine was based in South India for the last (too many to remember) years. He organised lots of Bullet rides, and also built up a good relationship with Enfield. He's back home now (Cardiff), but could probably offer any help or advise if needed.
 
Cool, any advice is always welcome. I want to head to the Enfield factory at some point, I am also entering classic racing series next year on a Enfield:inlove
 
We did a trip on the Enfields (350) a few years ago. Wife is dying to go back again. Cant afford to take more than a couple of weeks of work though & also you say no wimen riders, so will be a no go for me.

But to everyone that hasnt done it. Do it.
