India - Help Needed
I'm going to India on business in Sept. My destination is Hyderabad. I wish to tack on a week or two, either one before and one after, or some combination, to do some MC touring.
My question is, what's the best way to make use of the time, what should I do about a bike (I think a rental makes sense since I'm not there long enough to justify shipping my own)?
Here are some options that I've considered:
1) Fly in to some other city that's about a week away, rent a bike, ride to Hyderabad, spend my week there, then ride back to the origination city via another route to return the bike an fly home.
2) Same as #1, only ride back to a different city. Is this even possible, considering the bike rental issue?
3) At the end of my first week in Hyderabad, rent a bike and ride around for a week or two in a loop, ultimately returning to Hyderabad for my flight out.
4) Find an organized motorcycle tour company that will take care of all the arrangements.
If I do one of the first three, what's a good planning resource for mapping a route, find hotels or camps, etc...?
Sorry I seem so naive and unprepared, but this opportunity just came up.
Thanks in advance for any info.
