Poker Run 2011
The date also coincided with the Nepali New Year (according to them it is now 2068) and it attracted riders
from 11 different countries including Nepal, The UK, Australia, Holland, Canada and The USA . The sight
(and sound) of 2km of bikes snaking their way through the Himalayan valleys to the Lakeside town of
Pokhara overlooked by the Annapurna mountain range was pretty impressive!

On April 13th 80 Enfields took part in a poker run in Nepal, but in total there were over 140 participants in
what now has become an annual event. The reason for such a turnout was raising awareness about Nepal
as a travel destination for motorcyclists, charity work (Nepalis helping Nepalis) giving stationary items to
school kids on route, bike rides to disadvantaged children in Pokhara and just fun riding with other
enthusiasts.

The riders picked up poker cards on route and the best hand won, additional prizes included best female
Enfield rider/supporter, and the hotly contested "Hard Luck Award" for the motorcycle that had the most
breakdowns.
