There’s something about India and the Himalayas that beckons to adventure riders. Ian Bowden felt the call and bit the Bullet.
The first time I visited India I told myself I’d never ride a bike there. Sometime later I watched a TV series depicting rides run in the Himalayas. The scenery in the mountains and Kashmir looked fantastic. “Never!” became, “When can I go?”
I checked all the details with Mr Google’s aid and found the Ferris Wheels ride ticked all the boxes, including traversing several of the highest mountain passes on this planet, venturing beyond Leh and through to Srinagar.
