Facilities offered by Royal Enfield for participants of the Himalayan Odyssey
1. Lodging and boarding arrangements on a Twin sharing – ‘bed and breakfast’ format. Dinner is included in all camps but not in major towns where riders prefer different platters according to their personal taste.
2. Service back up – we carry a small team of mechanics and light spares (in case of major complication bike will have to be carried in the truck to the nearest service station).
3. Medical back up in the form of a qualified and experienced doctor. However please note that the onus of the participant’s health rests with him. Due to the high altitude and remote nature of the region combined with difficult terrain, lack of infrastructure, and inherently risky nature of the ride we urge participants to always be cautious.
4. Exclusive prearranged camping facilities in offbeat scenic locations.
5. Hygienic water (those participants, having special requirements for separately prepared mineral/boiled water are requested to make their own arrangements).
6. Guidance with bike preparation and physical conditioning before the trip.
7. Tips on bike maintenance before, during and after the trip.
8. Tips on riding, both before and during the trip, dealing with special topics like cornering techniques, off road (sand, snow, slush, inclines) riding, water crossings etc...
9. In case of any major mechanical damage participants will have to pay for the parts replaced.
10. Accident damage will have to be paid for by the rider.
11. Riders will be responsible for paying for their own fuel, meals and snacks other than that included in the package.
12. Arrangements to carry your luggage (at your own risk). Participants are requested to carry emergency provisions and first aid on their person all the time. Their other luggage (two pieces only) can be carried in the support vehicle. The support vehicle is the last vehicle to start and last vehicle to reach hence there might be a delay in participants being able to access their luggage after reaching a destination.
13. The riders will be required to cross a stretch of 400km without fuelling facilities in case participants are not confident of doing so on one tank-full they should intimate the support staff to enable them to make arrangements to carry additional fuel.
