Chanderjeet from ADVrider set us up with a rental Royal Enfield Bullett. 500cc.

First problem: the speedo cable came loose. Easy fix.

It was 150 miles and 4 hours from Delhi to Agra. I felt more comfortable on the bike than walking on the streets. It took no time to figure out the right side gear shifter.
Our mission was to see the Taj Mahal.

wow
great pics

How do you take pictures of people on the street? I always feel really really weird about it.
I just walked around Agra with a 28-135mm lens and asked, "Photo?" and the people would nod yes. Children asked for their photos to be taken. They think its cool that their image is traveling to America. Some of the women would actually pose. Perhaps my large camera made me look important.
