I've always wanted to be able to ride a manual motorbike – and having talked endlessly with people about it it's something I've just never got round to.
But in Leh there are all these really cool Royal Enfield's and I was really itching to have a go. Luckily we bumped into an Australian who'd been given lessons by one of the guys in town – so we headed straight out to book ourselves lessons.
After a short ride out of town to a quite stretch of road, we were shown the basiscs, and then spent a few hours motoring up and down learning before heading off to one of the monasteries for a road trip.
