Shaddow of Giants
.I’m not the one for “epic” riding films where the narrator describes the adventure as an escape from reality and where it becomes a verbal vomit of over explanations, but something about this video grabbed my attention. I have heard of Ladakh before and seen multiple videos about the region and the dream would be to one day travel those treacherous roads, so to see someone doing this during the off-season is quite spectacular.
Filmmaker Andrew David Watson was in India, traveling home from Sri Lanka and decided to check out this region. Ladakh is translated as the land of high passes, and is an isolated mountain region in the most northern tip of India. Even though it was the end of winter there, he was able to rent a 350cc Royal Enfield and ride in the shadow of giants. This is a short video of his adventure.

Icon Thriftmaster – love it or hate it
.I’ve been keeping an eye on the Icon guys for a while; they have taken a lot of my favorite classic cars and married the timeless styling with a modern performance package. Although they don’t always stay true to certain design details, their overall approach I feel is honorable.
That being said, I am not so sure the new Thriftmaster model price tag of 250 000 usd does the same. This is a truck for the certain rich person that loves the old time styling but likes the handling of a new car. Personally I would rather browse craigslist for something closer to the original and to a little more overcoming price tag. Love it or hate it, I feel that Icon put in some solid thought to the parts and designed the truck with fundamentally proud mid-century American styling.
