*Warning*
Altitude
Much of the itinerary is at high altitude. Some nights will be spent above 10,000 feet. If you feel this will affect your trip to India, see a doctor and take a physical. You want to be in the best physical shape possible when on this trip. Please consult your physician regarding altitude before you take this trip.
Camping:
We will have organized camping for two of the nights. All camping equipment such as tents and sleeping pads will be provided. Food, toilet and water will be available at these camp sites.
Arrival Day:
Send us your travel information so we know when and where to meet you. Please be prepared to show your current motorcycle drivers license.
Gear:
Bring riding gear that is warm and waterproof (a riding suit with pads is best). We recommend Olympia Moto Sports riding gear. Also bring: Stout water-proof boots, rain gear, a warm hat, rain-proof gloves (2 pair), hiking shoes, bug spray, lots of underwear, fleece layers, full-faced helmet, swim suit (if there are hot springs), and a good camera are the things you need on the trail.
NB:
Your safety is very important to us so we do everything we can to make sure that you are safe at all times. India roads are very different to anything you might have experienced before - they play cricket on the roads and cows have right of way! With this in mind we expect you to have good experience of riding motorbikes. |
