Indian Himalaya trip

 


Blog Extra News

Since me and Andy came back from Russia we have discussed the idea of going to India. We decided to organise our own Himalya trip. One objective to get to this point.

This is Khardung La just outside Leh near to the line of control in Kashmir. Its 18000 feet above sea level.

So planning has been taking place since Christmas. We have two seats on an Air India flight from Heathrow to Delhi.
We have organised two 500cc Royal Enfields from Inder Motors (Lalli Singh) which are all booked.



We have a hotel booked near to Lalli's workshop for the first two days and the last day.

International driving licences and visas have been obtained at considerable cost. (£100)

So we go in three weeks and it looks like we will be joined by Simon. Simon is from Plymouth and a avid adventurer (motorcycle and cycle). We met him at the Horizons event last year when he was presenting on India and America.He will be in Delhi at a volunteering project and had decided to join us. We should meet him in Dehli on his Honda Hero 150.

This is what we are expecting:
