Spiti & Lahaul
Spiti & Lahaul2,340 km9 days
The Spiti loop, the long way round
Nine days, 2,340 km, three punctures and one hailstorm above Baralacha La. The cold desert does not care how prepared you think you are.

Kutch, Gujarat
Kutch, Gujarat1,180 km5 days
White desert, full moon — the Rann in winter
1,180 km across Gujarat to ride the salt flats under a full moon. Flat, fast, and quietly one of the strangest landscapes I have ever stood in.

Western Ghats, Maharashtra
Western Ghats, Maharashtra720 km4 days
Chasing the monsoon through the Ghats
720 km of wet tarmac, waterfalls that weren't on any map, and the smell of the first rain hitting hot road. The Ghats in July are a different country.
