The Bridges of Lower Mustang
Drinking Beer and chilling on a Saturday evening made me upload a video to "You Tube". But its a video in full res of me crossing one of the bridges of Lower Mustang. I posted an Insta version on the gram a few days ago.
Tanking Up on Sideburn and Dice Magazine
At the first Tank Up. We are going to have to have separate post on that next I feel. At the coffee counter I put all my personal copies of all the Sideburn Magazine I own so that people could sit grab a coffee and flip through the magazines. The idea was to kind of bring in some of the culture behind motorcycles from around the world and showcase it at our weekend.
From there I realised how hard it is to get these magazines into the country so I spoke with Gary the Editor and asked him if I (going further Tank Up) got be the distributor for Sideburn Magazine in India. Gary jumped at the opportunity and viola I am now the distributor for Sideburn Magazine in India.
For those who follow Helmet Stories and dont know what or who Sideburn Magazine is follow this link and take a look for your self. Sideburn Magazine
Order Issue 49 with us now. Fill in the link a the bottom of the page. |
Once the first batch of Sideburns were ordered I thought why not make a corner at Tank Up a library with Magazine and Books that talk about Motorcycling and the culture that revolves around our favourite past time. So I contacted the good peeps at Dice Magazine and asked if they had a supplier in India and if not would they happy to have me as that person. It didnt take them long to say of course they would happy for me to take it up. So before I knew it I had ordered the first batch of 10 magazines. Which showed up at my door just as I was leaving for Lo Manthang.
The cool part of all this is that we have been able to bring Sideburn down and keep the price the same as the cover price + Shipping + if customs decides to Tax us. (Sideburn is 7GBP and Dice is 20USD).
This is just the start I will move this to a proper space on the Tank Up website (we need to make a Tank Up website) where you guys will be able to see what Issues we have with us and what is on the way.
For now all the people interested in Sideburn Issue 49 and Dice Issue 94 - 96 fill in the link as we are going to be sending out an order later next week.

It’s been a long long time
So let's blame Instagram for killing this blog way back when and being the reason I am here resurrecting it.
Let's hope this carry's on…
