Mount Everest Himalayas, Nepal

OKAY, BUNKY, YOU SAY you've done it all. You’ve ridden the Blue Ridge Parkway, toured Baja, been over every road in the Rockies. You've blasted your bike down autobahns and twisted up and down every pass in the Alps. You say you're looking for something new. something, well, out of the ordinary.

Well, we've found it for you. What would you say about a motorcycle tour of Nepal? One that flys you, via Hong Kong, to no less than Katmandu? There you spend three

days with your Honda XL familiarizing youself, as the organizers coyly say, “with Nepal's unique motorcycle driving habits and conditions.”

But that's just the beginning of the adven-

ture. The l 7-day tour will take you to view Mount Everest at sunrise, and then follow that with a traditional Sherpa breakfast. It will take you to Nepal's Chitwan National Park, where, again accord-

ing to the organizer, you can trade in your motorcycle for first an elephant, and then a dugout canoe.

Well. Bunky, does that sound exotic enough? If you're interested, the price of the tour is $2,995. including air fare from the U.S. west coast. Your contact is Bill Leininger, of China Worldwide Travel, 603l l 12 West Pender St., Vancouver. B.C., Canada V6E 2Sl,phone(604) 687-7435.

And one last thing, Bunky. If you go. please send us a postcard. We really want to know what it was like.
