Photographs
The photographs and the films
Everything here was made on the ground, on the routes we ride. Each tour has its own album, and where there is footage, the film opens it.
Films
Nepal on two wheels
The short introduction to the country as we ride it — the range, the trails between the villages, and the people who guide on them.
The circuit, ridden
Four and a half minutes on the route the tour follows — the trail surfaces, the pass, and what the descent off the far side actually looks like from the saddle.
Bikes off the skids
Under three minutes of the lift in and the ride down — what the helicopter access buys you, and what the ground is like once it has gone.
A descent in Upper Mustang
A minute of one descent, filmed on the trip — the surface up there, exactly as it rides.
The albums

Upper Mustang11 photographs · With filmThe Forbidden Kingdom
Seventeen days behind the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges — shuttle-assisted enduro through a Tibetan kingdom closed to outsiders until 1992, turning on the walled city of Lo Manthang and the 4,210-metre Pa Pass beyond it.
