Royal Enfield in Paradise

This Ride Now adventure looks like heaven. Oh yes.

Deep in the Indian Himalyas lies a land that was crafted and set upon this Earth with quite a different purpose in the scheme of nature. Not here the lush jungles and fertile valleys to provide bounty for mankind. Rather, it was built to impress man, bowl him over with its magnitude, and remind him what an insignificant twit he really is.

Sounds and looks rather like the Plateau of Leng. A Royal Enfield Bullet is just the ticket for fleeing Mythos entities!

Holy smokes! 4600 meters is over 15,000 feet - a big single doesn't get much of an intake charge at that attitude, my XR was wheezing just at 10,000 in Colorado...

It is an excellent question and one that had not occurred to me...

Still, beats the heck out of walking, or sitting inside a vehicle. Our neighbor-missionary, "Doctor Bob," had a 350. At least he didn't have to run pre-mix like the two-stroke Jawas.
