Chai and chivda... The permissions haven't come through for such a large group to cross the Little Rann. So its a long haul of approx 450 km on highways to Zainabad today.

Rann of Kutch ride, day 5, Kala Dungar

Went up to the border to Sardar Outpost, where the CRPF fought a memorable battle in 1965. Its situated at border pillar 1115, the last border pillar number 1175 is at Sir Creek, 50 km westward. On the way back to Hodka is the highest point in all of Kutch-Kala Dungar all of 485 metres high which provides a fantastic view, almost 360 degrees, of the flooded Rann.

The last point where civilians are allowed. Looks like we may get to go ahead. The border guys are nervous though about letting us through...

Today we ride to India Bridge, the last point where civilians are allowed. However, we have permissions to go further on, deep into the Great Rann, visiting outposts that are close to the border. This will be a first for motorcyclists. Good on ya Royal Enfield!

Moto for Japan

This project is the shared idea of Greg Hatton and Jon Bekefy. As motorcyclists and employees in the industry, we're both incredibly aware of our debt to Japan. We love the sport of motorcycle racing, we've long earned a living in this industry, and we ride bikes built in Japan. The Japanese people have contributed to our passions and our livelihoods, and we believe, both as motorcyclists and regular humans, that we have an obligation to aid and assist them in this time of disaster and terrible loss.

Whether you're a rider, a racer, an industry employee, or a fan of any of the Big Four, this is your opportunity to give back to one of the most important nation-contributors of all things riding and racing.

Every dollar donated through MotoForJapan will go directly toward funding the Red Cross' relief efforts in that country. By giving, each contributor can be recognized as a motorcyclist who gave something back to the country that's given us so much. from http://www.crowdrise.com/moto4japan
