We are pleased to announce a  new Tour route, Lhasa to Lumbini. We will publish this fully, as a Guided-Tour in the coming days.

Lhasa to Lumbini is a Tour that takes in the best elements of the Tibet sector and some of the most spectacular routes and locations through western and Central Nepal. It’s a Tibet & Nepal Motorcycle Adventure.

A Tour with a Buddhist ‘ring’ to its name, we first visit the Potala Palace once home to His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama. Across the Tibetan Plateau we’ll visit several remote Buddhist Gumpas, and latterly we visit Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, though the Tour will not end there...

Our Expedition around the North East of India has finished. Gerry and Peter agreed it was a great success.

We planned to ride for 25 days, in fact we spent an additional 3 days on the road, in the true spirit of an expedition.

There were also suggestions that it should have included some of the further reaches of Arunachal Pradesh and possibly Manipur and Mizoram so these and other suggestions will be incorporated into future expeditions. Given the nature of the roads in these remote regions of India, we both agreed we sometimes had to change our route, dropping some sectors and including others.

On our Expedition Rides we ride without jeep or mechanic support and stick to a loosely planned route, taking time to explore smaller local roads and tracks and spend time with locals. We don’t book hotels or rooms in advance, taking whatever is available en-route wherever we happen to arrive at night. We’ll travel with tents and sleeping bags should our night stop happen to be ‘in the middle of nowhere’.

You can read both their accounts of the Expedition on our Blog Page and decide for yourself if this is the type of ride you’d like to join.

Photos of the expedition can be seen here on the site, in FaceBook (if you Like that kind of thing) or on SmugMug.

Wednesday 21st September we head off into the wilds of north east of India. The Expedition Ride will cover approximately 5,000kms over three and half weeks. Riding the new model 500cc Classic Royal Enfield with our new luggage system, riders and machines will be tested to the limit. The Expedition will cross 5 Indian states, West Bengal, Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh and for the fist time, Nagaland. When ever possible we will be Tweeting our progress and posting Status Updates to our Facebook Page. "See you at the other end!"

We launch our Self-Guided Tours and two new Expedition Routes through central and southern India. In spring we ride across Sri Lanka and then Bhutan. We ‘open the support truck door’ to our Rider’s Groupies and tempt you with an offer of ‘Tenth Person Goes Free’. We report from the Webmaster’s Desk, show off our new luggage and put out the word.
