    Ride Report: The India Ride Expedition

    Day 20: Well, if it seems like we've been on the road traveling for a long time, you are correct. Can you believe we are only 1/3 of the way through our journey? The bodies are starting to ache and the mind is starting to get a little fuzzy. But today we enjoyed our 20th day on the road with a...

    Ride Report: The India Ride Expedition

    Day 19: Today was a quiet day for the India Ride Team. We made the very quick and painless 177km journey from Mumbai to Pune with relative ease. We've enjoyed climbing off the coast (where weather is hot and humid) and back in to the foothills, were we've been greeted by cooler air and much less...

    thanks for the tip - we've all been very careful but it's India and I think at some point it just will catch up. Colin got sick at a pretty nice hotel, you can just never let your guard down :)

    Ride Report: The India Ride Expedition

    Day 17: Day seventeen of the India Ride was a day of extreme contrasts. We started our day waking up to birds chirping and cool winds blowing through a quiet vineyard. That's right, the India Ride Team spent the night at the Sula Vineyards just outside of Nashik in Western India. The India Ride...

    Ride Report: The India Ride Expedition

    Day 16: Today was a fantastic day. Colin fully recovered from his food poisoning and the team completed an incredibly arduous 401km over perfect modern highways and pothole covered dirt roads. In many ways today was a day of extremes, as we had some of the best roads that we've encountered on...

    A great typical Indian breakfast on Day 1 just North of Delhi. A shot from the top Rohtang Pass after a long 50km and 4 hours battling tough roads, traffic and weather. A shot from the other side of the Rohtang Pass. Some very happy riders to see this on the other side. The team road...

    Day 11: After traveling about 152km from Bikaner south on Highway 89 our Mahindra vehicle stopped registering gears and was completely immobile by 1145am. Sure this was some bad news for our team, but the good news was we were just 10km outside of Nagaur and after making a few calls to our...

    Have a great trip, I'ver heard Leh is beautiful. We actually had planned on going but we couldn't obtain filming permits and visas so we had to hold back. However, we've heard that the route we took is actually more difficult as the Leh route is very well travelled, especially by a lot of tour...

    Day 09: While the morning flew by swimmingly, trouble did strike mid-afternoon when Ryan hit a large pothole in the road and managed to blow out his back tire. As he rolled the bike slowly to a halt, he was never in any danger, Colin quickly noticed that the back tire was completely flat. At...

    Unbelievable well actually - I'm shocked to be honest, but they keep on going, i wouldn't say they are very high performance but the do the job and to be honest in India you don't really want to be going very fast anyways. We had a flat tire today which was the first bike related event thus far.
