Gordon May Fires up His Bullet to Travel Overland to India

02 September 2008

Royal Enfield author, Gordon May, called in at the UK head office of Royal Enfield in the Cotswolds at the start of his 8000-mile journey to the Royal Enfield factory in Chennai, India. He is making the journey on a Redditch-built 1953 500cc Bullet. Challenges that the intrepid rider will face on his long journey include harsh climates; tough terrain, especially in the Baluchistan Desert in Pakistan; language difficulties; border-crossing bureaucracy and what are generally acknowledged to be some of the worst driving standards on the planet.
