Royal Enfield Himalayan Spirit 2026: A Ride To Remember

Intorduction

Ever since moving to Mumbai in December 2025, I had the itch to go back to Pune to revisit what I had left behind. When Royal Enfield sent us an invite for the Himalayan Spirit 2026 event at Autologue Ranch, I was quite excited.

A few things were running through my mind; the first, obviously, was the chance to finally go on a long trail ride, which I was desperately looking forward to. The second was reconnecting with friends in Pune, whom I hadn’t met in almost 3 months. With all this in mind, I decided I would ride down to Pune on a Himalayan 450, and here’s what my experience was like.
