A glimpse of my GoingEastwards trip. An overland solo motorcycle adventure from the Netherlands towards India, made by me Robert Jan van der Kaaij (30,09,1987) in 2015 (28 years old at the time). Covering a distance of 17.086km in 3 months on my first motorcycle (a simple commuter's bike; Honda NTV 650cc from 1995) with just a year of driving experience. The goal was to see how far I could push myself and my motorcycle. The videos are captured with a GoPro.

Scary overtaking of a truck in the Indian Himalayas, where locals are clearing the dirt road from a recent landslide. This is the only road in the region (and far from any village) so I had to keep going and overcome this obstacle. You can clearly see I'm riding right on the edge of the road/cliff between the debris.
