| From Cusco |
Other countries require months of classes, practice and a license. Peru requires $25 and a face. That’s how I learnt to ride a motorbike. I spent 4 hours terrorising the roads and dirt tracks around Cusco today. Beautiful scenery and great fun. And now, if I ever find myself on the set of an action movie, I can jump on a bike and make a high-speed getaway with screeching tires. I’m adding “motorbiking” to my list of half-skills, which also currently includes horseback riding and singing.

Oh, and when I’m wearing it, the colour of the helmet is officially known as “danger yellow”.

Now you can follow Che Guevara’s steps, biking the Andes. Or instead come here and be a terror on the Mehrauli-Gurgaon road. The scenery looks wonderful, and the air so clear. A bit different from Delhi yesterday. I did the (push)bike race on what must have been the most polluted day here since last winter, with nary a sign of sunlight. I’m still clearing out my nostrils.

Pretty Cool, Nigel!
For some strange reason I found that my comments don’t go through unless I previewed them first which is why I thought Annita’s wouldn’t. However, it did this time for her, so I’ll try sending this without previewing it!
Lol,
