Enduro Himilaya
I've been looking for an adventure since i came back from Peru, i liked it, it was awesome, but i got the bug and want to do something a little more severe! I now know a few people who did the Peruvian adventure i did, and well, its getting a bit common for my liking. At the time there was massive hype about closing the trail for a few years, let it rejuvinate, but it was decided that the country couldn't afford to lose the tourism involved.
So, what next. I posted about the American trail before, thats below this post, i quite liked the idea of that, but i've come across something a bit more radical. The idea of walking 2000 miles was a bit of a scary prospect considering my current state of unfit. So in comes Enduro Himilaya.
EnduroHimilaya simply takes my breath away at the idea of it, scary, exciting, interesting, mind blowing, all words that come from the mouths of the people who have already taken part. Now, before you read any further, i'll tell you its a motorbike journey, and, as yet, i dont own a license, but seriously, for this? I think i may need one. 2009 Trips are all but sold up, i dont have the time nor money to think about a bike license before then, but maybe 2010 is calling . . .
If Enduro Himalaya doesn't change your life it will certainly change
the way you see life. Way up in the sky life is very different, the faces and places you encounter will be unlike anywhere else on earth.
The Himalayas are not for the faint hearted the mountains sheer magnitude is a test in itself, add to that the unpredictable weather,
the constant risk of landslides, sudden border closures and route changes and you realise why this life experience doesn't appeal to every biker.
If you visit the Himalayas on your own it will blow your mind - but to come and be a part of Enduro Himalaya with the foremost guide and support team in existence you will be exposed to a route that no other tour operator dares to tackle.
We will ride roads that have been closed to the public for decades, we will sleep by huge roaring fires at the mercy of vast sapphire lit rivers and awe-inspiring snow clad peaks. If you're lucky enough to wake in the night you may hear bears calling to each other, each morning you will feel more alive than you have ever felt - This place is so heavily charged with the earths power that you simply cannot be here and stay the same.
Each night we rest our heads in weird and wonderful locations, these include 1000 year old monasteries, strange ancient temples (once used for human sacrifice) and wild isolated mountain wilderness. We ride as high as a snow leopard and tread as carefully as mice as we take on treacherous tunnels way up in the mountains and wind our way through the pristine and remote ranges of the Tibet / India border. We take these risks not to escape life but to prevent life escaping us - come and be a part of this ultimate biking adventure.
