Getting ready to bike India

Once again, we are about to get on our bicycles and explore a new part of the world for us - this time India. Again, it is one of the trips offered by TDA Global Cycling - https://tdaglobalcycling.com/hippie-trail - our seventh trip with them. We've grown familiar and comfortable with their style of organisation and support. 



The cycling starts in Delhi - from there it will be six weeks with 30 days on the bikes to ride just short of 3000 km to Goa. Also doing the ride will be Wendy Holmes and Dave Morriss, friends here in Squamish, and Eve Holland and Greg Forst, friends from previous trips to the Arctic and New Zealand, and about a dozen other riders who we have yet to meet. 

We depart Vancouver on Monday January 21 on a direct flight, arriving the following day in Delhi. We'll have a few days to see some of Delhi before getting on the bikes on January 27th. If you wish to follow us, we'll try to share some experiences and photos in this blog whenever we have the right combination of things to show and/or tell and have internet access. 

Hope you enjoy our ride... Ursula and Rae
