Royal Enfield Embarks on Tour of Nepal From April 25

Royal Enfield will be embarking on the fifth edition of the Tour of Nepal, with the ride flagged off on April 25, 2016. As many as 30 riders will be journeying over 2000km over 15 days, most of it through uncharted terrains of the Himalayan range.

The ride promises to offer an off-roading experience, winding mountain roads, slushy trails and smooth straight stretches as well, through pristine forests of the Himalayan foothills. This year, the riders will ride through the panoramic view of the Himalayas from Lucknow through Bhairhawa, Pokhra, Kalopani, Muktinath, Tatopani and, Kathmandu, Kodari, Nagarkot, Chitwana and finally back to Lucknow.

The riders will be travelling across winding twisty roads leading to Pokhra; explore Jomsom, which until recently was just a trekking trail; experience extreme off road trail leading to Muktinath; enjoying the picturesque ride along the Tibetan plateau to Kodari; will relax at Chitwan National park and then ride down to Lumbini the birthplace of the Buddha.

The route has been chalked out specifically to challenge the riders with the majestic mountain ranges, slushy off-road trails, water crossings, gravel tracks and across narrow suspension bridges. Registrations for the Tour of Nepal are open on the Royal Enfield website. (http://royalenfield.com/ton/register/)
