Tour of Rajasthan: Registrations open
Sep 2nd
The tour of Rajasthan is a tour far off the beaten tracks. It promises to test your grit and build your talent on the famed deserts and ride some of the best tarmac in the country.
Ride on routes that few ever ride on, country roads, sand dunes, hills, jungles, highways as good as landing strips, a dry salt lake and all with little or no traffic. Then there’s the border road where yours will be the only vehicle passing through the famous 1971 battle sites.

Royal Enfield: Tour of North East
Sep 1st
Starting 12th September, Royal Enfield heads out for a new adventure into the virgin lands of North East India. A 11 day route through dense jungles, broken tracks, over high mountain passes, snow covered hills and rarely travelled roads through the wilderness. The Trip is expected to be challenging and fun filled with plenty of riding in these rustic areas.
A completely different ride the Tour of North East offers an adventure unlike any other before. Most of the route hardly has any civilization and is marked with large desolate stretches surrounded by dense forests, high mountains and rocky terrain.
Over 600kms of the route is a part rarely travelled and unknown even to the local folk of Arunachal. In fact 60kms of this route is over High Mountain passes that the locals insist that a motorcycle can’t traverse hence they travel on foot.
