HERCULES MOUNTAIN BIKING HIMACHAL | A
BRIEF INRODUCTION
The best images one can conjure up of a biking event
would be of Tour De France where we can see hundreds
of bikers vying with each other to be the leader leaving
behind people lined streets of towns stung by the event's
popularity with the event promising to test the endurance
of the bikers. Here in the other part of the world where
biking is not much more than the means of transport
comes an event which has the competence to come out as the world's only real endurance testing biking stage race for the real adventure bikers who take their relationship with their bikes and nature seriously. It's MB Himachal, the mountain enduro & adventure put together for the real enthusiasts by HASTPA (Himachal Adventure Sports & Tourism Promotion Association) along with the department of tourism Himachal Pradesh.
