Motomountainboulderbiking

So what you do is this;
Hire a Motorbike,
Head up hill as far as you can, maybe pausing for a while to watch the paragliders take off.
When the road ends, Carry on.
When all you have in front of you is a track blocked with boulders, carry on.
If this is seeming too easy pickup a hitchhiker.
Eventually if you’re lucky you will hit a big smooth sweeping mountain road where you can see miles ahead for oncoming traffic (and there’s very little)

I did 70Km yesterday 20 of it off road, only seeing one another vehical. Was hard work but really rewarding.

I chatted to a few gliders back in Pokera and found the going rate was £70 for 30 mins and with all my best haggling skill I could only get them down to £60.

In the evening I called the paragliger who’s number I got given in Varanasi. He didn’t really want to talk about it on the phone but said we’d have to meet up at some time. Tbh he didn’t sound very interested so I didn’t hold much hope.

In the evening I went to the chess café and was chatting to my opponent who turned out to be the same paraglider I called earlier.

We played a couple of games and he said he’ll take me up for £35 if he doesn’t have a booking through the agency this morning.

I’m hoping for the call soon :-)
