Nice route some tough parts. I rode my RE Himalayan through the route on semi road tyres. Was laughing my head off skidding the bike through the ruts. Bike nearly got stranded near the gold course. Had to dig him out. Weather was awful and many routes flooded. Great fun though.
My GoPro didn’t record but will be riding again soon

Good easy route, with some nice lanes. There was one section with large deep ruts, so watch out GS riders, otherwise very pleasant. also takes alot of time, we only managed to complete 1/2 of the loop
