Wednesday, April 16, 2007, the date marking a milestone. I take vacation days to go qqs cycling in the northern Alps, but decided to return after 2 days of nonstop rain. Being on the side of Doussard near Lake Annecy, I can not resist the temptation of a little detour M5, recumbent dealer, where Jean-Pierre Hénon I did try several models. And then, revelation. Even if the models that I propose does not quite correspond to my needs, I know it's in recumbent that will be my next trip.
few months and tests later, I am increasingly tempted by the 3-wheel option ("trike") that offers great comfort and an interesting approach of the trip. And it's so cool!
return from India in September, I'm going to Lyon in Cyclociel try a model which I'm told a lot of property, including off-road and travel: the Trice QNT the English brand ICE (Inspired Cycle Engineering) . Absolutely brilliant. I contact them and present my plan to cross the Himalayas. And there, everything accelerates. They offer me a trike complete with accessories. Here is the mount on which I'll go:
class, right?!?
Oh, I forgot a few words on the itinerary:
Step 1: Return to Ladakh in July-August to test the beast story in familiar territory and make necessary adjustments before undertake a more ambitious journey. And also qqs explore corners that I have not had time to see last year (including Zanskar) and return to Highlands to meet the nomads. Course with the head still behind the idea of continuing a photographic essay on life in the Himalayas.
Step 2: crossing the Himalayan massif from Dushanbe in Tajikistan to Kathmandu Nepal , via Pamirs, the Karakoram the Chinese Turkestan and Tibet , with the highlight a pilgrimage to Mount Kailash . Scheduled departure in July 2009, the time to find yet few finance and organize an application for leave without pay.
If you know of wealthy patrons who do not know where to place their money with the crisis, I can offer them a safe investment and interesting (well, especially interesting to me ...). In short, I'm rercherche sponsors. Here is a link to the project site (still under construction ...):
