Royal Enfiled has announced the dates for Himalayan Odyssey and it will be held from July 6th to July 23rd. For your information, Himalayan Odyssey considered as one of the most gratifying motorcycle journeys in the world from Delhi to Kardung-La – the highest motorable road in the world at 18,300 feet above sea level. The registrations are open on the Royal Enfield website – www.royalenfield.com/ho for Himalayan Odyssey 2017 (HO 2017), and Himalayan Odyssey – Women (HO-W).
For the 14th edition of Himalayan Odyssey this year, Royal Enfield is taking 50 participants on the HO and 20 women participants on the HO-W. One of the biggest motorcycle ride of its kind in the world, Himalayan Odyssey will see participants traversing through some of the roughest terrains and highest passes in the world covering a distance of close to 2200 kilometers in 18 days on their Enfield motorcycles.
The ride will witness camaraderie of fans and participants flaming off on Saturday 8th July from India Gate in New Delhi. Both contingents – HO and HO-W will be flagged off from Delhi together and will ride on different routes before finally converging at Leh.
The HO is an opportunity for passionate men and women who seek to look beyond the obvious and venture into the unchartered territories of one of the most challenging terrains in the world. A journey of self-discovery for many, the Himalayan Odyssey has given birth to inspiring stories that become a part of motorcycling folklore.
