We started the day with an amazing view of the mountains surrounding Pokhara as breakfast was served on the roof top restaurant which was simply amazing!

Our objective today was pretty straight forward as we needed to go to a company called Hearts & Tears Motorcycle Club which does adventure tours into the Annapurna Ranges which are basically part of the amazing Nepalese mountain ranges. We had booked a 3 day bike ride up into the mountains riding Royal Enfield motorcycles.

Pokhara is Nepal’s 2nd largest city, although still small it had a great feel to it with a lake running along one side and those amazing mountains in the background.

We managed to find a good coffee shop while walking the town so we took the opportunity to relax and catch up on emails etc. we needed to be at the bike shop at 3:30pm as the owner, Matt was not in until then. Turns out Matt, who is a great guy from Melbourne,  was working for NGO’s in Nepal as a chemical engineer assisting with water quality and fell in love with Nepal and decided to set up his own business and stay.

Tomorrow we start our Royal Enfield adventure!
