    UK Adventure Motorcyclist saying hi before solo 6 month trip around India

    Hi to all on xBhp

    I thought I'd join this site after recently reading the excellent magazine. I see it covers bike travel so thought I'd post a bit about why I'm back in India.

    I was lucky enough to ride my Honda 650 Transalp to New Delhi from the UK in 2009 (via Europe, Turkey Iran and Pakistan) but I am now back
    and am attempting to ride a 150cc Hero Impulse around the coast of India.

    In the last month I was lucky to ride to Leh via Shimla Manali and back to Delhi via Srinagar.

    Please feel free to check out my blog if you like - Simonchegwyn's Traveler Profile - TravelPod

    I love India!

    Simon
