"Did the Bumla Pass-Madhuri-Sela circuit on a Himalayan over 5 days. Bike was workshop-fresh and altitude-tuned, delivered to my hotel at sunrise. The team arranged my ILP + PAP in advance. Best self-drive — handshake at Indo-China border was unforgettable."
"Picked up a Classic 350 in Tawang Old Bazaar. Rode Sela Pass + Nuranang Falls + Madhuri Lake in 3 days. Bike handled the 80 hairpins beautifully, never stalled at 13,700 ft. Cold-gear add-on saved my fingers. Smoothest mountain rental I've ever had."
"Long-stay Buddhist photography project — rented a Bullet for 3 weeks. Daily monastery runs across Urgelling, Khinmey, Tashilim, Tawang Main. Monthly plan was a steal. WhatsApp support actually answered at midnight when I had a flat near PT Tso."
