Rann of Kutch ride, day 5, India Bridge

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...

Rann of Kutch ride, day 5, Hodka Village

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
