Keeping the show on the road requires that we have a full time support vehicle, carrying spares, equipment, tools, fuel and other supplies and victuals. Driving the Mechanic's Support Jeep is Raju 'Driver' Singh.

His role is to shadow the Tour group all the way, just far enough back not to 'hustle' Riders and not too far as to delay necessary maintenance incidents. He's driven on almost every road across India, his knowledge of the highway and how to survive it, is vast and invaluable. To make a friend of Raju is to have peace of mind on the highway.
