Sectional Riders

Lise-Lotte Andersen Denmark

I am 42 years and happy to have the opportunity to join the Tour for 14 days.
I will be joining the Tour in Udaipur and leave it when we arrive to Mumbai.

When I am not in Denmark together with Henrik Norup (also sectional rider) and our 5 kids, we travel as much as possible.

Normally we bring our bikes when we travel abroad - last year we went to Thailand for a month to explore the country and locals. On the ride we visited Khao Lak one of the locations that were severely impacted by the tsunami in 2004.
 
I really look forward to join the group and meet you all ( specially the women, we are few in our group)

I am from Denmark, where cycling is an element of our culture – 9 out of 10 Danes do own a bike.

 

“To travel is to live” (H. C. Andersen 1855)

 

If you to this quote add “on a bike” you have my approach to this expedition.

 

I will join the “Kings and Sultans” section.

My partner – Lise-Lotte Andersen – will join the expedition in Udaipur and we will both leave the expedition when we arrive in Mumbai.

 

I am really looking forward to get to know all you fellow bike riders and explore India.

I currently live in Mumbai where I have been for the last 2 years. I enjoy exploring new places. Have recently finished a bicycle tour from Manali to Leh. This tour went over some high altitude passes including the Khardungla pass of 5600m / 18380ft. Look forward to exploring the southern area of India.
