HIMALAYAN EXPEDITION / 2016

An unforgettable BRC expedition into the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan — winding mountain roads, breathtaking valleys, remote landscapes and the unique experience of riding through one of the world's most fascinating Himalayan destinations.

The Ride

In 2016 BRC pointed the handlebars east and rode into the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan.

Endless switchbacks, cloud-covered passes, prayer flags and valleys that opened up around every bend — a country that seems designed for motorcycles.

Long days in the saddle, cold mornings, hot dinners and the kind of brotherhood only a border-crossing expedition builds.

Highlights
  • Himalayan border crossing
  • Cloud-covered mountain passes
  • Remote valley roads
  • Monasteries and prayer flags
