Iain Crockart is a London based photographer who recently rode a 350cc Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycle through the Himalayas, photographing and documenting the 1400km journey.
The group of over thirty, all riding 350cc Royal Enfield Bullets rode to a height of 18,340ft.
Way up in the sky, life is very different, the faces and places we encountered were unlike anywhere else on earth. We are now part of a small group of adventurers who have tackled this route, as we know, the Himalayas are not for the faint-hearted, the mountains sheer magnitude is a test in itself, add to that the high altitudes, unpredictable weather, the risk of landslides, sheer drops, roads that are mud, water and sand, sudden border closures and route changes and you realise why this is one of the most challenging motorbike adventures on the planet.
The journey taken by the group is documented by Iain Crockart in a book called Enduro Himalaya 2011, Adenture in the Sky, which is available to buy here.
